Description scootergrisen 2019-02-20 01:43:13 PST 
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.
