Steps how to reproduce with installation of unofficial (by wg9s) De SeaMonkey 2.53.3beta 1 pre Mozilla/5.0 (NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0 Build 20200510220906 (Default Classic Theme, newly created User Profile) on German WIN7 64bit

  1. Launch Browser
  2. Click
  3. ˋ<f1> for Help → Search Help for "Erste Schritte mit SeaMonkey Mail" → Click the hitˊ
  4. Search page for wrong spellings from list below
  5. Check listet wrong hyperlinks

(4) Wrong Hyperlink
In first TOC there is a list item "Nachrichten signieren & verschlüsseln" which should lead to a target "mail_sec_help.xhtml", which does not exist. IMHO correct target is "mailnews_security.xhtml"

(3) I found some typos (Always: wrong -> correct):

(I'm not sure whether ths explication really is correct, but "weiters" definitively is incorrect, replacing with "außerdem" definitively is some progress)

In de, privacy-help.xhtml also has a link to mail_sec_help.xhtml (select "Privatsphären-Funktionen verwenden" in the tree, should be the first link in that page); it, pt-BR and pt-PT have links to mail_sec_help.xhtml too.

User Story: (updated)

(If the pt-BR error message you mentioned in the User Story is "entidade não definida" (undefined entity) for copyright.string, I filed bug 1643698 about it.)

Already fixed: detailierte,

All the rest still reproducible.

Anybody here who can give me a crash course how to fix such typos?

Anybody here who can give me a crash course how to fix such typos?

Easiest way:
Grab the latest l10n source currently:

https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/releases/2.53.13/source/seamonkey-2.53.13.source-l10n.tar.xz

Unpack and navigate to /de/suite/chrome/common/help.

Locate the file, use your favorite text editor to edit the file you want to change (make sure it will not try to reformat the whole file being edited). Notepad++ e.g. is fine. Attach file(s) to bug or send them to me. I will reformat them as a patch against the next version.

Thanks. Reformatted. Will be in the next 2.53.14b1 pre.

I found another Typo and corrected it. Standart corrected to Standard.

I checked my installation of DE SeaMonkey 2.53.16 Beta 1 Pre Mozilla/5.0 (NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:91.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/91.0 SeaMonkey/2.53.17B1 Build 20230610113409 (Same with normal user Profile and newly created User Profile), Default Classic Theme on German WIN10 64bit and also mailnews_getting_started.xhtml for 2.17 from WG9X 2023-06-2023-06-29 21:00:

  • All typos gone
  • no bad links any more

Only "Erstellen & Adressieren" has not become replaced, but I think this complaint is not important, obvious ...

So FIXED!
