I don't think they're all correct, in particular the kB one is very likely wrong.

For those that are OK, you'll need to change the string key so that localizers pick up the requested change.

Comment 7

[Leo]

Then, leo team can't change the string key becuase translation issue.

I don't really understand why add new srting key.
Never - The start letter must be capital
KB - other languages are all 'KB'


If you want to chage the string key, it will be fixed by Mozilla Gaia engineer.

Comment 8

[Leo]

Another string issue,
Idle - Settings - Internet sharing -  Hotspot settings - Security
Please change from open to Open.

leo should be update english, spanish and portugese(Brasil)

Comment 9

[Alex Keybl [:akeybl]]

We agreed that we would discuss this in a different setting (putting needinfo on Jaime/Axel to get their opinions), but since this isn't a regression from v1.0.1, we're not going to consider it a blocker.

Comment 10

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

I'd point to https://etherpad.mozilla.org/gaia-copy-guidelines, if we're looking for directions on casing and punctuation etc. Does that answer the question?

Comment 11

[jachen]

That etherpad pad page does not cover dropdown or selector options.

I believe that the case of "Never" should be capitalized in the description and "Open" in comment 8.

In addition, I do believe it should be "KB" if we want to be consistent with what is shown in the email attachments UX spec.

I will ask Rob to update the etherpad to include both selection options and also file type abbreviations.

I do not think this should be blocking, but agree with tracking + nom.

[Rob MacDonald [:robmac]]

Thanks for highlighting this issue. I confirmed the style for the value selector (sentence case) and updated the spec at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/UX/Style_guide#Copy_tone.
