From 1ebb748ce109e6339a26b88012eb69f2ac02a726 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ori Livneh Date: Fri, 2 Nov 2012 22:43:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] (Bug 41672) Drop possessive in personal tools The repeated inclusion of the posessive in each label is obnoxious. Other languages have gotten rid of it already (Dutch, for example). The Bugzilla thread for the bug contains some insightful reflections about UI implications.
