710659 - [pl] Localize new firefox download page and its confirmation page

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Pascal Chevrel (relman team) -> :pascalc]

We have a new download page replacing the current download page and focused on messaging the fact that Firefox is designed by a non-profit and defends the interests of the end user and no one else.

Here are the pages for your locale:

http://www-dev.allizom.org/pl/firefox/new/
http://www-dev.allizom.org/pl/download/?product=firefox-8.0.1&os=linux&lang=eo&nodownload

You need to translate the file download.lang in your svn repository for mozilla.org, here is the link to the file:

http://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/projects/mozilla.com/trunk/pl/includes/l10n/download.lang?view=co

It is only a few strings but since it is the download page, it is a key page. Please check that the pages looks visually good and that the message is at the same time engaging and ok for users of your locale.

If you see visual bugs or need adjustments for your locale, please mention them in this bug.

You can translate this page by svn and just add the revision number of your commit or you can attach the translated file to this bug and I will commit for you.

Thanks!

I just wanted to make sure no string was giving you guys too much headache.
This is our main download page and the messaging presents our brand, so it is important that we get it right and that our localization resonates in Poland. It's totally ok if you need to depart from the original English text to do that.

We put together a brief in order to give localizers more context and background. Hopefully this should help you come up with something appropriate and idiomatic if the original copy doesn't work for you.

Here is the link to the brief: https://etherpad.mozilla.org/brandbrief
(it was also posted on the Google Group: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.l10n.web/YBoNysaNq08 but a little late I'm afraid)

I am available to discuss if you have any question or issues regarding these pages ([e-mail])

Pay attention on "Systems & Languages | Release Notes | Privacy "

What is wrong with it? They are not part of download.lang file, anyway.

Some times ago SUMO team explained that "Support for Firefox" should be "Help for Firefox", so now is good time for change term "Wsparcie" to "Pomoc" in Polish vesrion.

I checked page, nope file, and saw that on the original page is "Systems & Languages | Release Notes | Privacy", but on Polis page is "Informacje o wydaniu - Polityka prywatności Inne systemy i języki". Not the same order, and on original page is only "Privacy".

And another one different:
On the original page is:
Tour  |  Desktop  |  Mobile  |  Add-ons  |  Support  |  About
om Polish:
Desktop  |  Mobile  |  Dodatki  |  Wsparcie  |  O nas

Leszek, the original English page is, indeed, a bit different than the localized ones. Does it make Sara's translation invalid? No. If you don't like it, file a general bug, so that local pages match the English 1:1. This is outside the scope of this bug.

As for "Wsparcie" vs "Pomoc", mozilla.org/pl uses "Wsparcie", which is the direct translation of "Support" ("Pomoc" means "Help"). If the SUMO team would like to discuss this with the Aviary.pl team, please file a bug in bugs.aviary.pl - it's also outside the scope of this bug.
