Thanks for the pull request; this has been a minor pet peeve of mine and has confused some of my coworkers who only work with gutenberg as a content editor. As mentioned in the original issue #41319 - using publish multiple times is confusing. I support this change. Notably, the nearby aria-label for both instance states 'change publish date'
cc'ing @afercia because I think you were working (and advocating for) for issues like these a while back. I fear that this PR will end up being buried because it's not made by a core contributor :/ |
Personally I'd be in favor of the proposed change because as mentioned in the related issue 'Publish' 1) it's unclear 2) there's a clear inconsistency between verbs and names. Some care should be taken with translations that may provide longer strings. For example, the correct translation in Italian would be 'Data di pubblicazione' which would go in two lines. Same would happen with many other languages. At the very least the vertical alignment should take into account the increased height when the text wraps in two lines. Screenshot: |
I think this PR is also related to #63342. One concern is mentioned in this comment:
In other words, is the following display acceptable? Post sidebar: Pre-publish panel (If this panel is expected to improve as well): |
What?
Fixes: #41319
Why?
The word "Publish" is not descriptive as to what the option modifies. It should give the user a clear indication of what will be changed or modified.
How?
Changed publish word to publish date in sidebar and also in modal.
