            Bug ID: 194852
           Summary: Add comments not to translate "file URL" and "file
                    scheme URLs".
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: scootergrisen at gmail.com
                CC: bugs-noreply at webkitgtk.org

The translation po files for WebKitGTK+ contains some strings with "file URL" and "file scheme URLs".
I suspect these are describing the "file:///..." kind of URLs and therefor should proplerly not translate the word "file" as seems to be the case for at least some languages.
So suggest adding comments to the strings about not translating "file URL" and "file scheme URLs" and give an example like "file://..." so the translator can better understand what it is for.

    "Whether or not universal access is allowed from the context of file scheme "
    "URLs"
