In French, the ! must have one space before and after, the english punctuation here use in French sentence is wrong. And "J'aime Symfony" is "I like Symfony", it has a different sense from "Symfony is great".

Thanks for this! About the space before !, that's correct. About the other change, it looks OK to me too although I'm not native.

I'm native, I can tell it's not a counter-sens but saying "I like Symfony" = "Symfony is great" in the i18n example seems not very relevant to me. Not the same subject, opinion vs. assertion. If I was asked to translate "Symfony is great" in French with no context precision, I would certainly not take the risk to use the subject Je (I) because this could mismatch with previous/next titles and sentences. It would be some kind of fancy the translator would added.

Why is this closed rather than merged? If you need me to send the PR on an other branch you should have told me.

@kylekatarnls let me explain how Symfony merging works. We use (both in code, docs and any other repo) a private tool to merge things (we don't use GitHub utilities to merge things).

Our own tool creates a merge commit with the name of the person who merged ... but it also leaves the original commit of the original author. For example, I did this in Symfony code repo: symfony/symfony@15fe686 and Fabien merged it with this: symfony/symfony@009b4d2.

In your case, you can see in 2.7 branch changelog your own commit and "my commit" (not mine, but generated on my name with the tool we use): https://github.com/symfony/symfony-docs/commits/2.7

I hope you better understand now how Symfony merges things. Thanks!
