Original description:
From Ingo Ltkebohle:
- Sometimes you talk of “publishingâ€, sometimes you talk of “uploadingâ€. This seems inconsistent. For what its worth, I like “publishing†better.
- Words such as “unmark†and “unhide†are difficult for me. I know its supposed to refer to the reverse, but wouldn't “remove mark†and “show again†be better? No clue about the UX, just the wording seems awkward (maybe more so in German, though).
- Is “Undoing revert†really possible? ;-)
- “Generating Events†seems slightly odd. I know what you mean, but its not really the Event that is generated (that one happened already in the real world), rather the Events are extracted from the foto metadata, right?
- “Basic†and “Extended†information are not clear to me. I am assuming there is some criteria for selecting what to display at which setting. It may be clearer to specify this critera or just to say “Basic†and “Allâ€.

One more note: In the remove-dialog there is a distinction between removal from the library and removal+deletion of the file on disk in the explanation dialog. The button labels, however, are called “Only remove†and “Removeâ€. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to use “Only remove†and “Deleteâ€?

Maybe you're looking at a translation -- in English, it is indeed “Only Remove†and “Deleteâ€. Note that “Delete†is a GTK stock item (internationalized by GNOME), while “Only Remove†is our text. Are you using a translation?
