883851 - [pl] fx os web page phase 2

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Bug to track the localization of the Firefox OS launch pages on mozilla.org in Polish.

Comment 1

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Here are the details for this bug:

The staging server for this page is at this location:
https://www-demo2.allizom.org/b/pl/firefox/os/

This is behind an authentification dialog box, here are the credentials:
demo2_user
4nMM2DroF3mRWaAm

The file is now in your svn repository there:
http://viewvc.svn.mozilla.org/vc/projects/mozilla.com/trunk/locales/pl/firefox/os/index.lang

We will launch the Firefox OS consumer page (this page) on July 1st, ideally we would need the translation to be done a few days before for QA. The visual design is still in heavy works, therefore you may see bugs but the strings should be pretty much final.

If necessary, just as we did for the MWC site, you can CC a couple more localizers to this bug to help you translate/QA the project.

Since there will be partners announced via logos on this page, please share this data with caution :)

The page is very dynamic with many animations, you may have to scroll up and down to see all the strings in context.

Thanks!

I've committed the translation in r117146. Let us just check what it looks like on the staging server.

After some twitches in r117147, the translation looks okay to me, except for two details.

1. At one place, the name "Firefox OS" is split into two lines. Since the site is supposed to be reworked, this problem may also appear in other places. Is using the   HTML tag going to work in a *.lang file to indicate a non-breaking space?

2. The screenshots are all in English - I just want to make sure this is one of the design elements that is going to change before the site goes live on July 1st :)

Yes, using a nbsp is what you should do in your lang file, this is even recommanded ;)

Screenshots are now in Polish

I would also remove the dots at the end of the paragraphs. They don't look good in Polish.

Matej - any thoughts on comment #5?

What dots are you referring to? I'm not sure where I should be looking.

Created attachment 766815 [details]
Dots at the end of paragraphs

I'm referring to these dots (and in other paragraphs).

Thanks. Is that what we usually do in Polish? I think it would be odd in that first example since the paragraph has three sentences and only the last one wouldn't have the period.

Is it actually wrong in Polish to have periods at the end of paragraphs? Or is it just a matter of style? If the latter, I would prefer to keep them.

Comment 10

[Sara Prussak]

I agree that removing final periods of the paragraphs where there are multiple sentences seems weird. 

I added non-breaking spaces in r117165

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Sara, you have 2 more strings in this file to translate. There are also 2 strings in tabzilla.lang that need to be done for Monday as it will be the promo linking to the Firefox OS site.

(generally speaking, there are like 20 untranslated strings on your web dashboard and it would be good to have them translates ;) )

Comment 12

[Sara Prussak]

I've committed translation of this file as well as tabzilla.lang. The rest is going to be done ASAP as well.

Comment 13

[Sara Prussak]

And the translation was committed in r117283

Comment 14

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Thanks Sara! Keep an eye on the web dashboard, there will probably be a couple of strings popping up tomorrow :)

Comment 15

[Sara Prussak]

Tomorrow I will be AFK for the entire day. I hope it's okay if the strings would be committed on Friday.

Comment 16

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Yes, that's no problem

Comment 17

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Thanks for all the work Sara, we are now live, enjoy :)
