The reasoning is sound, but in the UK we don't have "trash" or "garbage"; we have "rubbish". Therefore settling for Trash would be a little inaccurate. How about a "Bin" or "Rubbish Bin" instead?

But calling a folder "Deleted Items" is an oxymoron: if the items were deleted, they wouldn't be there at all. I suggest just using "Trash" consistently. It's much shorter than any of the alternatives, it's less work for the translators, and it puts an end to the situation where a partly-translated interface comically disagrees with itself. I think these are all the strings that need fixing: < https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/nautilus/+pots/nautilus/en_GB/+translate?search=trash > < https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/gvfs/+pots/gvfs/en_GB/+translate?search=trash > -- Deleted Items Folder inconsistently named https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406626 You received t... -- Deleted Items Folder inconsistently named https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406626 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
