@webmasterab Please write only in English here! Also provide a detailed description and a test instruction for your Pull Request (PR). Thanks!
I am not sure this change is needed, you can open the link in a new window by right clicking it.
there I just in its response to the Dutch translation here
Question I see this now not back in my lcale GitHub program?
Who can help me with this.
Or do not see your own pulls in your local area?
for ux I say +1 for the change, all external links should be opened in a new tab.
for the question:
your commit should be on top.
It's an accessibility failure to force opening in a new window

For UX it is nice, but actually there is an accessibility recommendation
that says to not force opening new windows (the JED implemented this
pattern based on that).

The externality of the link should not be the only criterion to be considered but also the "skill" of the "target" user (if my mother is the user, agree or disagree, you MUST open it in a new window ). Each link case should be considered (despite what some "expert" want to assert as truth) but here, IMHO and regarding the user concerned, I am not in favor of _blank.

Needs Review so the PLT have the last voice on this.
@brianteeman is right here. Forcing this is wrong. If the person doing an update is not knowledgeable enough to know what a right-click is, he/she should not manage a website in the first place. Sorry.
I know very well what is a right.
I am concerned about people using joomla who do not know.
But it is clear to me
Thanks for your answer
@webmasterab As the consensus is to not force the link to open in a new window, I am going to close this issue. Thank you for your contribution.

Vraag ik zie deze nu niet terug in mijn lcale GitHub programma?
Wie kan me hiermee helpen.
Of zie je eigen pulls niet in je locale omgeving?
