            Bug ID: 450541
           Summary: [event summary] The value associated to the "Calendar
                    :" field is prefixed arbitrarily.
           Product: korganizer
           Version: 5.19.1
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: otherviews
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: guillaume.lang at illoc.net
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
In the event summary in the main window, the calendar name is always
automatically altered. If the calendar is named "foo", the summary displays
"Calendar: My foo", i.e., the calendar name is prefixed with "My".
(see for instance https://cdn.kde.org/screenshots/korganizer/korganizer.png)
=> This is forced on the user.
=> This brings no readability improvement, and easily breaks (for instance if
naming a calendar after one's child).
=> It is even worse in languages where there is a pronominal distinction
between singular and plural or between genders. For instance in French ("My" =>
"Mon / Ma / Mes") and German ("My" => "Mein / Meine"). That is borderline
unreadable.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create any event in the "foo" calendar.
2. Select it.

OBSERVED RESULT
"Calendar: My foo"

EXPECTED RESULT
"Calendar: foo"
