"Reflect" extension full of hardcoded English text, doesn't use MW i18n system
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

The Reflect extension has UI template files which appear to be full of hardcoded English text:

<li class="elicitation">Add a point that <%= this.commenter %> makes...</li>
<li class="count">
      <a title="Please limit your bullet to 140 characters or less."><span class="count"></span></a>
</li>

etc

If to be used, needs to be retooled for i18n.

I don't see how to get in contact with the extension author except through (maybe?) Twitter, so I've linked these bug reports to the FIXME in code review.

Paladox subscribed.

It is currently in svn and needs migrating to git. It needs a maintainer. @brion would you like to be the maintainer.

Extensions only in subversion should be considered abandoned. Please only dredge these up if you are willing to maintain any of them for real. I'll unsubscribe here. There is a lot to be done on active code.

siebrand claimed this task.

@Paladox: please stop adding me as subsriber for tasks, I have really enough stuff on my to do list and do not need your help to explode it. Thanks

Ok sorry I only added you because you review i18n code.

Keeping this open since I requested that the repo be moved from svn to git.

I have not looked at the extension, but along the i18n updating started, the extension can still have hardcoded english text.
