We reduce code duplication thanks to that, and make it easier
to change this field.
Note that there was one place where the "16.years" value was
hardcoded. We're moving the test for this case to the
component and changing it so the test doesn't use the default
age.
We're also removing the redundant helper method that had the
same code as a method in the User class which is called
everywhere else.
As mentioned in commit 5311daadf, there are several reasons to use
buttons in these situations. And, as mentioned in the previous commit,
using buttons instead of links for actions requiring confirmation will
help us test for accessibility issues.
We were using similar code in four different places; six, if we count
the welcome pages seeds. Reducing duplication in the pages seeds is a
bit tricky because administrators are supposed to edit their content and
might remove the HTML class we use to define styles. However, we can
share the code everywhere else.
Note that there's a bug in the application since we show that level 2
users cannot vote for budget projects but we give them permission to do
so in the abilities model. We're keeping the same behavior after this
refactoring but we might change it in the future.
We had the same texts four times, with slight variations in the case of
the management section.
We're unifying them under the "verification" i18n namespace, since the
texts are about actions which can be done depending on whether users are
verified or not.
Note the names of the i18n keys aren't very consistent, since we use
"debates" in plural but "proposal" in singular. We're leaving it like
this so existing translations aren't affected.
Using placeholders having similar (or identical) text as already present
as a label has a few issues.
First, it's a distraction. Reading the same information twice is
useless, requires an extra effort, and might even frustrate users.
Second, if users start typing before reading the placeholder and see it
disappear, they might think they're missing relevant information,
delete what they typed, and read the placeholder. That will get them
nowhere.
Finally, we display placeholders using a text offering very low contrast
against the background, so users don't think the placeholder is an
actual value entered in the field. Using such low contrast makes the
text hard to read, particularly for users with visual impairments.
So we're removing these placeholders.
This commit only deals with placeholder texts with similar (or
identical) texts as the label text. There might be other places where we
should replace placeholder texts with labels, but that's a different
topic.
Using the `_html` suffix in an i18n key is the same as using `html_safe`
on it, which means that translation could potentially be used for XSS
attacks.
