Thanks for reporting this, Ethertank. Jean-Yves, can you take a look?

John, I have no right other than user rights on Verbatim. Also I think verbatim doesn't point to the right Kuma version, I think.

We may try to reach the ja admistrator of Kuma but I don't know who there are (pascal may help but he is in PTO for one more week).

[John Karahalis [:openjck]]

To be honest, I don't think I fully understand the problem. What would the ja administrator of Kuma be needed for?

Anyway, the admin is probably one of these people.

Ethertank, do you know who the ja administrator is?

Maybe, [e-mail]

But... I think this is not just problem of administrator of Japan.

If you can't do smooth communication with the administrator of "Mozilla Verbatim", you shouldn't move a lot of pages.

Ethertank says the probrem is in the en-US template.
Please update old URLs in the "messages.pot" template.

I wonder if this problem here is the one detected by the French localisation team that is blocking any localisation.

Basically, Verbatim is pointing to the wrong branch of Kuma and none of the new strings/URL/… does appear for translation.

This bug (which is rapported) is completely blocking all translation on the MDN.

You should check all URL in Mozilla Verbatim.

What can you do with CSS Media Queries?</p>

I modified outdated URL when translating.
However, fools undo them because URLs in original is wrong.

[Frédéric Bourgeon [:FredB]]

Alright, double-checking what's to be done here.

One needs to go through the strings and check if the URL is the most recent one (so basically, under /docs/Web or /docs/WebAPI and update the stale /en/ to /en-US/), right?

Let's just hope that the strings will be marked as fuzzy translations in verbatim so that localizers won't have to start all over again with the modified strings :)
