It's possible to change text in the UI but we don't document how to do it. It involves making new versions of Bundle.properties and related files. We should document this, right?
Ah yes, that could be useful. I had stumbled across this possibility but it wasn't very explicit and I missed the procedure to fully understand. I didn't use this feature in the end, but I may need it at some point. It might be useful for others too.
Yeah, I also think it'll be useful to document. Maybe something to pick up in a docs meeting, because the location might be up for discussion section-wise.
Sorry, the location of what?
Of where to document it in the guides.
Oh, right. Hmm. Well, I'd probably default to somewhere on a future version of this loooong page: https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.4/installation/config.html
Or maybe the "how to extend Dataverse" page, once it exists. See #docs > how to extend Dataverse
I was initially also thinking of the "Style Guide", so it would be closer to the metadata text guidelines. But maybe that's not where a developer would find it. I guess config (or close to it) also makes a lot of sense to me.
