* (P2) URLs should use a localized site when available. If one is not available, you could use the English site or request approval for an appropriate local substitute. | |||

=== Approval === | |||
To help us reach our goal of a consistent worldwide user experience, we're asking localizers to undergo a short review, like we already do for code. This applies to all URLs in the browser (search plugins, bookmarks, sample RSS feed, any other URL), but not all changes require approval. | |||

* To change to a localized version of a site that is part of the en-US branding -- for example, changing from English to German version of Yahoo -- '''you do not need approval.''' | |||
* To link to a site that is not part of the en-US branding, '''please request approval.''' | |||

* (P1) Locales must add contentHandlers to region.properties -- these are new for Firefox 2, and if you don't, your locale won't have any RSS feed handlers! | |||
* (P1) If you want to suggest alternative RSS feed handlers which may be more appropriate for your locale (localized, larger market share, better user experience), please file an approval bug (see Approval above). | |||
