Dude, you need to slow down and do things properly as to not create a bunch of work for me and the Add-ons Team.

Cleaning up your mistakes requires manual action on my part. You should, especially when new to this, allow others to test and let you know about pre-submission issues. Also, you should do nothing until you have an understanding of what you are allowed to do under a software license.

It should be obvious that you should not be doing drive-by forks. You are commiting to long term care of these extensions.

Thank you for answer.
This is only extension i use with Select Like A Boss from age Firefox.
Forked Select Like A Boss, I could give up this, but doing the first addon, i made also the second.
Now i am not going to make others adoons.
I don't know if Custom Buttons work again (i have a neutral version).
Maybe in future something else

It makes no sense to have an en-US localized block of redundant metadata.

[francesco bat]

I also wanted to leave localization in Japanese (like the original), but I had to change the title and description that were written in Japanese and I didn’t know how to translate it (I don’t always trust automatic translators especially if I have to do it from Italian to Japanese).
In the extension there is a subfolder with name "locale" and i removed japanese and i leaved english and inside there are:

- mybookmarks.dtd
- mybookmarks.properties

I saw they are called in some configurations of the addon and i didn't know if i can to delete the localization from install.rdf and it continue to work also in japanese.

[moonbat]

The localization sections in install.rdf are only meant for displaying the addon metadata in that language for people who have that language pack turned on. So the Japanese section will make sense if someone is running Pale Moon with the Japanese language pack on an OS with the language set to Japanese.

[New Tobin Paradigm]

I wouldn't keep anything outside en-US unless you know the language or have translaters lined up.

[francesco bat]

Ok !
I edited it and it works
