Would you like to work on the issue?

Opening this issue for GCI.

@misaochan @neslihanturan @ashishkumar468 could you please provide your views on this? Is it fine for a GCI issue?

[neslihanturan]

Hi @yashk2000 , would you mind sharing GCI task specifications etc.? I am not sure if this issue is really needed. What punctuation do you want to change? Can you provide current and updated strings?

[yashk2000]

@neslihanturan the current share message is this:
Upload photos to Wikimedia Commons on your phone Download the Commons app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons

It's missing the punctuation over here on your phone Download. It also seems to be a bit too dull in my opinion. I was thinking of adding the punctuation and making the message as follows:
Upload photos to the Wikimedia Commons directly from your phone. Download the Commons App now: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons

[neslihanturan]

Oh okay, a native speaker is better to share their idea here:) Let's wait for someone else join the conversation.

[yashk2000]

@neslihanturan I have a few more ideas for GCI tasks, but I want to discuss them with the maintainers before I create the tasks. So should I just open issues over here, or should I send a list of all my ideas to the mailing list?

[neslihanturan]

Creating issues seems to better to me. You can create a label and add it to your issues like "GCI ideas"

[nicolas-raoul]

I agree with Neslihan's comment above.
Then please add GCI tasks for each issue we have set labels for.
Thanks a lot :-)

Hello @yashk2000 , @neslihanturan , @nicolas-raoul , @ashishkumar468 I'm new to the community and I would like to resolve this.

[ashishkumar468]

Sure @shash137. Please let us know what changes do you intend to make to resolve this issue?

[shash137]

@ashishkumar468 I've changed the current share message:
Upload photos to Wikimedia Commons on your phone Download the Commons app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons
to
Upload photos to the Wikimedia Commons directly from your phone. Download the Commons App now: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons

LGTM, good to go if one of @neslihanturan, @maskaravivek @nicolas-raoul @misaochan confirms.

[yashk2000]

@ashishkumar0207 @shash137 this is a GCI issue. We have created a task for it in the GCI dashboard too.

We should wait till 2nd December when GCI starts and assign it to a GCI student.

[ashishkumar468]

Thanks, @yashk2000, I did not know @shash137 was not picking this up as a part of the GCI task. @shash137, as @yashk2000 said this is a GCI task and only those associated with GCI can be assigned this task.

[shash137]

@ashishkumar468 , @yashk2000 i don't know about GCI please tell me.
But I was told in the zulip to contribute in the issues under "good first issues" tag.

[nicolas-raoul]

Sorry, adding that tag was my mistake.
Let's add this tag again on such issues if they are not solved after CGI.

[shash137]

@nicolas-raoul okay so I don't have to solve issues under GCI.

[kizule]

This should be closed as resolved now, as my pull request is merged.

[nicolas-raoul]

@zoranzoki21 Thanks for fixing this :-)
@yashk2000 Thanks for filing the issue!
