Simplify header text in community pages

[bmispelon]

Currently the header in the community pages looks like this:

The text "Building the Django Community for 18 years, 11 months. Come join us!" is a bit too detailed, and based on a comment in the code, it seems like it was intended to be shorter:

djangoproject.com/aggregator/context_processors.py

Line 14 in f03f53f

# Django 3.2 introduces depth kwarg. Set timesince(..., depth=1) then.

Ideally, the text should read "for 18 years", which would be done by using timesince(..., depth=1) as the comment linked above mentions. A test would also be needed (in the aggregator/tests.py file).

This could be a good first-time contribution, anyone should feel free to try and send a PR.

Done ✅

For future reference, you don't need to be assigned to an issue to work on it. You can simply leave a comment on the ticket, that's enough to inform people that you're working on it, and to avoid two people working on the same ticket at the same time.

from datetime import date
from django.utils.timesince import timesince

DJANGO_DOB = date(2005, 7, 14)

def community_stats(request):
"""
Context processor to calculate Django's age for the community pages.
"""
# Using depth=1 to show only years.
stats = {"age": timesince(DJANGO_DOB, depth=1)}
return {"community_stats": stats}

Hi, I’m Saparya, and I’d like to work on this issue.

I’ve reviewed the description and understand that the goal is to simplify the header text on community pages. I plan to:

• Identify the files where the header text is defined.
• Propose simplified and concise alternatives for the current text.
• Ensure the changes align with the project's design guidelines.

Let me know if there are any specific requirements or additional details I should consider before starting. Thanks!
