{{PLURAL}} needed in YiR translation units
Closed, ResolvedPublic3 Estimated Story Points

Description

Some translation units need {{PLURAL}} which is necessary for correct sentence structure in certain languages.

I think that the following recently edited units might need it:

  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-edits-bytes-slide-subtitle]] for $2
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-edits-bytes-slide-title]]
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-edits-slide-title]]
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-edits-slide-subtitle]] for $1, and for $3, too, if it is not a decimal
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-reading-slide-subtitle]] for $1 and $2
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-reading-slide-subtitle-short]] for $1 and $2
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-reading-slide-title]]
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-saved-reading-slide-subtitle]]
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-microsite-yir-english-saved-reading-slide-title]]
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-year-in-review-base-editors-title]]
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-year-in-review-base-reading-subtitle]] for $1
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-year-in-review-base-viewed-title]]
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-year-in-review-personalized-editing-subtitle-2]] for $1
  • [[Wikimedia:Wikipedia-ios-year-in-review-personalized-saved-subtitle-format-v3]] for $4

–and/or a commentary to the unit documentation about the nature of the numbers: translators might need to know whether number is "1", "1,2", "1,2 million" etc.

Eng Notes

Options:

  1. (1) Only update comments to give a ballpark of what the number will be (we won't have a final count for another few weeks).
  2. (3) Modify tokens from strings to plural syntax + lld tokens (instead of just d), and updating the localization script to recognize lld as a token to import / export.

QA Notes

Test in latest TestFlight 7.8.5 build.
There is a YiR developer settings toggle to show entry points to the feature.
Ensure the numbers on YiR slides look correct.
