(ugh, Flow)
@Krenair, Nemo bis, Krinkle: Let's discuss. I see three things in the section under dispute:
- Messages
- Comments
- Documentation
There are other things that could be included but aren't explicitly listed:
- Names of classes, functions, methods, parameters, variables, constants, etc.
- Names of database tables, fields, etc.
- Message keys
- Non-localized exception and log texts
Messages shouldn't need dispute: Messages in en.json should use American English, since en-gb.json and en-ca.json exist for other varieties, while en-us.json doesn't because we use .
As for the rest, consistency in documentation (including doc-comments) within an area would make a better impression on those reading the documentation, and in thing-naming makes it slightly easier to remember the name of a thing if you're not using an IDE with auto-complete, but generally it's all going to be understandable by anyone who understands English and IMO doesn't need a major battle over it.
