Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Websites :: Firefox Flicks, defect)

Description

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #831330 +++

This bug is for the translation of the updated "Firefox Flicks" site for 2013.

The Firefox Flicks site is a video contest targetting talented filmmakers wishing to create fun videos about Mozilla and Firefox. This is the third iteration of this contest, the first contest was in 2006, the second contest was in 2012 and this year contest will focus on Mobile and Firefox OS promotion.

Here is the url on the development server:
https://firefoxflicks-dev.allizom.org/lij/

We are at stage one in which we announce the contest and make a call for participation to this contest.

The translation format for this project is .po files that you are on svn but also available through the Verbatim Web translation tool:

https://svn.mozilla.org/projects/l10n-misc/trunk/firefoxflicks/locale/lij/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po
https://localize.mozilla.org/projects/firefoxflicks/

This is a 5750 words site but if you did the project last year, 3750 are reused, which means a translation of about 2000 words. Some of the strings similar to strings last year are also marked as fuzzy.

Please also note that there is one special string that is actually a set of about 20 strings that will nor be used in the site but will be inserted into a downloadable PDF for the Creative brief, this brief is actually a presentation with just a few words on each slide. In this special string, each slide change is indicated by an html line break (<br>) and if the same sentence is meant to be split in two slides, there will be an ellipsis indicating it, ex:

With Firefox OS, we're making smartphones more accessible...<br> ...while empowering more users in more ways.

This way we will be able to provide a localized Creative Brief and not just one in English.

if you can, please prioritize the translation of the brief over the other strings, this way our engagement team will be able to create the pdf's for your language while you are translating the rest of the site. We will of course provide you the pdfs so as that you can give feedback.

We are targetting a launch of the site with the announcement for January 22, there will also be further updates later this year to put the competing videos online and announce who the winners are.

Thanks!

Hi! 
The translation is now completed and updated on SVN!

Thanks Alessio, I see that you committed to varivables fixes I mentionned on the mailing list :)

Let's keep the bug open until your locale is published.

Also, on the Faq page there is a link to wipidedia for Public Domain
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain

We put localized versions of the page for all locales but I couldn't find yours, I am guessing that if there isn't a Ligurian version of the page we should use the Italian one instead of Englis, right ? (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pubblico_dominio)

Comment 3

[alessio]

We don't have this page!
For now we can use the italian version:
https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pubblico_dominio

As soon as I've some time I'll write the page in ligurian wiki:
http://lij.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pùblico_dòminio

mkelly, could you activate lij on production with the Italian wikipedia link? Thanks

Comment 5

[Osmose [:osmose, :mkelly]]

lij has been activated on production, has a creative brief and is using the Italian wikipedia link.

Comment 6

[alessio]

Translated the new parts...
but here, there is no more the ligurian(ligure) language in the listbox:
https://firefoxflicks.allizom.org/

It was removed along with the rest of the locales when we launched R2 (strings got extracted really late so none of the locales were done). If everything looks good on http://firefoxflicks-dev.allizom.org/ (which should display all languages regardless of whether we remove them or not) then let me know and I can add lij back in the next push.
