Nice job. Seems to do the trick for now but is not very clean. Can we get the
website folks to switch to using the actual English strings rather than these
tokens? This way it will be easier for everybody (and it's more consistent).

Also Sayamindu,
can you work out some script that will merge the existing translations of the
website in Pootle? I'm not sure if merging the PO files (from wiki) will not
overwrite the actual text in comments. I have to try that soon.


Regards,
Alexander.
