Bug #: 34965
Summary: Clean up grammar in ApiSandbox "Documentation" section
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: ApiSandbox
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
I'm not sure where the "Documentation" section of ApiSandbox comes from, but it
currently has inconsistent (and, in some cases, wrong) grammar.
Examples:
list=exturlusage --> euquery --> "Protocol of the url. If empty and euquery
set, the protocol is http.
Leave both this and euquery empty to list all external links"
"URL" should be capitalized.
action=clicktracking --> "Track user clicks on JavaScript items."
Ends in a period?
action=coderevisionupdate --> "Submit comments, new status and tags to a
revision"
No final period?
action=wikiloveimagelog --> "This API is for logging each time a user attempts
to use a custom image via WikiLove."
"This API"? This isn't consistent language with the documentation for the rest
of the parameters. And it ends in a period.
These are just a few examples. Consistent style should be applied throughout.
If the text is going to end in periods, it should end in periods every time. If
"URL" is going to be capitalized (when used in documentation text), it should
be consistently capitalized. Etc.
