Bug #: 32419
Summary: Feedback implies subordinate clause
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Moodbar
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
When entering feedback through MoodBar, it asks "Editing RobinWiki made me
[...] because..." plus a subordinate/dependent clause.
In English, this does not change the text itself. "I had a problem" is the same
as "[Editing RobinWiki made me sad because] I had a problem".
In e.g. Dutch, it is different: "Ik had een probleem" vs. "Het bewerken maakte
mij triest omdat] ik een probleem had".
This is not really a problem, but on Special:FeedbackDashboard it gives "Ik een
probleem had", which sounds weird because it is shown as an independent text
whereas it is part of another sentence.
It would be good if this was somehow explained, e.g. by adding "because"
between the happy/sad/confused face and the actual text; or at least make it
possible to customise it per language.
It's not a big issue, but it would be nice to make that clear on that special
page. FYI, this issue was also mentioned on
