Period inside of quoting in the deletion message

[Vlada Macek]

The sentence should end after the quoting ends in Admin. Not like this:

'Deleted “%(object)s.”'

but like this

'Deleted “%(object)s”.'

Including patch against master with all the PO files too. Please regenerate the MOs.

Thanks for this ticket, however in American English, the punctuation usually goes inside the quote, see ​discussion.

[Vlada Macek]

Incredible. This looks so strange...

So the line Added “%(object)s”. is probably incorrect and inconsistent...

[Mariusz Felisiak]

Yes, there is another ​discussion (in which you were mentioned) to change other messages for consistency. Feel-free to send PR via GitHub.

Oh, thank you. They mistyped my nickname in the mention, so I was unaware.

Yesterday I wanted to bring some clarity and less confusion to stuff. But I think I leave PR putting the punctuation inside quoting to someone who does not mind to follow the nonsensical American inertia-based rules from the long-gone ages of metallic typing.

Having period looking to be a part of the object representation distorts the object name. In my language (Czech) there is a sub-rule for inserted texts having no connection with the sentence, then we put period after the closing quotation.

Peace :-)
