Comment 2 Akseli Lahtinen 2022-07-24 14:50:05 UTC
Currently working on this in here: https://invent.kde.org/akselmo/plasma-workspace/-/tree/new_localization_settings

I'd like to know what to do with the examples for the LC_ADDRESS, LC_NAME and LC_TELEPHONE: https://invent.kde.org/akselmo/plasma-workspace/-/blob/new_localization_settings/kcms/region_language/exampleutility.cpp

As you can see I've put most of the things in i18n tags, for example i18n("Street"). However when looking at the example itself, it seems a bit messy due to the non-fitting examples, especially when there is something like RoomNumber instead of just example number.

Telephone has just fake phone numbers that go 123123 etc. It looks much better in the example.

Should I just create for LC_ADDRESS and LC_NAME something fun as an example, like "Dr. Konqi, KDEStreet" that better shows how the address looks like in the example?

I think that makes sense. Such an address is obviously fake, which helps communicate that it's a placeholder text in an example.
