Hi Akira,

Thank you for the review and the pointers to the style guide.

I have corrected all 90 stringsString A string is a translatable part of the software. A translation consists of a multitude of localized strings. you left in “Waiting” for SU Blocks – Blogcard (23 in the pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website.

- 1-4: a half-width space between half-width and full-width characters (e.g. “URLURL A specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a website’s URL www.wordpress.org が指定されていません。”)
- 1-2 / 1-4: half-width “?” and “:” with the proper spacing (e.g. “取り直しますか ?”, “注意: ”)
- 1-5: half-width parentheses with a space before and after (e.g. “(なし)”, “設定します (単位: 時間)。”)
- The plugin description that had been left in English is now translated.
I have re-imported the corrected translations to Stable, Stable Readme, Development and Development Readme, so the strings now waiting for review are the corrected ones.

I also applied the same corrections to my other three plugins (they are still waiting for review), so all four should now be consistent with the guide.
