Translator documentation

Translation files (.po)

Comments

All lines in the translation files that start with # are comments, either aimed at helping developers or helping translators.

#: at the start of a line is a source reference, aimed at making it clear where in the source code this message IS or WAS used. Because the original po files were migrated from another, json based format, the old JSON keys have been added as source references, to make it clear where the message originally came from in the previous format.
