During last week. Flod had a glimpse of how messy the Mozilla Localizations product is in terms of pending bugs: 3 years old open bugs with no activity, fixed bugs still marked as NEW, etc.<\/p>\n

Imagine a component in Bugzilla as a garden: right now Mozilla Localizations resembles an abandoned garden. With wandering zombies in it \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n

\n
<\/div>\n
How can we improve this situation? I’m not sure if some of these features are available to all users, if not please let me know.<\/div>\n
\nFollow your locale<\/b>
\nIf you’re not doing it already, start following your own locale on Bugzilla and try to keep it as clean as possible. Every time someone opens a bug in this component, you’ll receive a bugmail.<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Login to BugZilla with your account and go to Preferences->Component watching (https:\/\/bugzilla.mozilla.org\/userprefs.cgi?tab=component_watch<\/a>).<\/li>\n
  2. Select Product “Mozilla Localizations”.<\/li>\n
  3. Click on your locale in the “Component” section.<\/li>\n
  4. Click Add.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    Resolve bugs<\/b>
    \nIf a bug is resolved, it should be marked as RESOLVED FIXED, then verified on the next build and marked as VERIFIED FIXED. Don’t leave open bugs around (remember zombies?).<\/p>\n

    Check pending bugs<\/b>
    \nYou can also perform a search for open bugs in your locales and save it:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Do an Advanced search on Mozilla Localizations -> Your locale\u00a0 for bugs with Resolution “—“.<\/li>\n
    2. When results are displayed you’ll see a “Remember search” button at the bottom of the page, give it a name (e.g. “Italian bugs”).<\/li>\n
    3. From now on you’ll see a link in the footer of all Bugzilla pages to perform the same search.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n

      Clear review and needinfo requests<\/b>
      \nIf someone falgs you for a review, or set a NEEDINFO for you, you should try to clear these requests.<\/div>\n

      \n
        \n
      1. Reviews: click on the review link in the attachment section, chose “+” if the patch is good, “-” if is not, ” ” (blank) to reset the request if you shouldn’t be reviewing the patch.<\/li>\n
      2. Needinfos: when you reply, below the comment you’ll see a checkbox, already checked, saying “I am providing the requested information for YOURACCOUNT (clears the needinfo request).”. If you’re providing the information requested, leave it checked and comment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n
        When you login to Bugzilla, you should see a red circle with a white number near the title Bugzilla@Mozilla. Behind these requests there are people, so be kind to them and reply \ud83d\ude09<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
