admin or administrator #26

Closed chrisdavenport closed 9 years ago

chrisdavenport commented 9 years ago

There are many occurrences of "admin" as an abbreviation for "administrator". Should we be consistent and expand them all?

brianteeman commented 9 years ago

we should but there currently is an issue that admin is used to represent both a user and the backend.

Definitely an issue to address but one I would prefer to leave open for now and address later

rgmears commented 9 years ago

From what little is presented here it seems one admin is administration (the backend) while the other is administrator (the user).

Hils commented 9 years ago

frontend admin also

Hils commented 9 years ago

Just noticed this in #20

COM_CONTENT_SHOW_IMAGES_URLS_BACK_DESC="Display or hide fields to insert images and links in the Administrator.

An obvious case of misuse of Administrator - it should be admin or administration.

brianteeman commented 9 years ago

This is one of the biggest issues Hils

because the url is /administrator and not /administration

which is why in many places we tried in the past to write backend

It's at this point I don't understand why the url is dictating the content rather than the other way round :( Is that a routing thing?

brianteeman commented 9 years ago

I am going to create a Stage 2 task for this

Replace all occurrences of admin and administrator with with Backend

Might as well do it all at once

Hils commented 9 years ago

why would that be capitalised Brian please? Is there a link, yet, to that rule? Backend

brianteeman commented 9 years ago

Stage 2 PR are all to be reviewed seperately

This was in the very original Word2Watch list from 6 years ago
