Strings needing correction

Pending text corrections

 Warning
All information for end users to be able to translate should be in a workspace on tiki.org




If you must change the English version of a text string in Tiki, but are not changing the meaning and so the translations are still valid, please use mass spelling correction or add to the list below. If you can't use that, just add exact string to pending text corrections

A workaround is to use lang/en/language.php


Current string Corrected string Reason for change Status/Notes

Also, all the uses of the word "stuff" should be changed to something more formal, like "information".

Follow-ups to earlier discussion:

  • "MyTiki" was replaced by "My Account" for Tiki 14.
  • Still pending: Probably "url" should be "url" consistently, except where there's a good reason not to.
  • Should we change all uses of picture to image?
    • I think there are subtle differences in meaning that may justify using both terms, depending on the context. "Picture" is better for expressions like "profile picture" (this used to be "avatar"), but "image" is better for general visual representations, like of a pie chart. (I'm not sure how to describe exactly the difference in use, but I think we can say there is a difference so using both terms is justified IMO.)
  • attachement has been changed to "attachment'.

Current string Corrected string Reason for change Status/Notes
help text for pp, tc and toc/maketocsee here consistency and ease of use Someone should deduce strings to translate from the previous hints.
Quicktags Toolbars Compatibility Changed in language files and php and tpl files in trunk for all capitalizations of quicktags, but not for sentences which include "quicktags" yet. (scripts are not that clever yet)

Keywords

The following is a list of keywords that should serve as hubs for navigation within the Tiki development and should correspond to documentation keywords.

Each feature in Tiki has a wiki page which regroups all the bugs, requests for enhancements, etc. It is somewhat a form of wiki-based project management. You can also express your interest in a feature by adding it to your profile. You can also try out the Dynamic filter.
