Richard Guk <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #3 from Richard Guk <[email protected]> --- Assuming that the output relates to robots.txt status (not to internal search), I suggest changing the text to: "External search: Allowed/Disallowed" Reasons: - if the status is based on robots.txt and is not always identical to the internal search indexing, then "External" would be more accurate; - "status" usually refers to the outcome of a process, which is misleading here because the info is about a setting; - "Disallowed:" is the standard wording used in robots.txt, so using "Allowed" and "Disallowed" is more consistent and makes the technical meaning more obvious. Though "Discouraged" would be slightly more accurate for non-technical users, the word is still ambiguous and fails to reflect the robots.txt wording. If you think that "Allowed/Disallowed" are still too confusing, then "External search:" could be linked to http://en.wikipedia.org/robots.txt or to the article at [[Robots exclusion standard]]. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
