Add GENDER support for message "moodbar-log-hide" in MediaWiki's Moodbar extension
MediaWiki supports translation of messages to other languages. Some languages have gendered verbs, where the verb has two different versions between female and male speakers. We allow for those uses in translation through a special wrapper called {{GENDER:}}.
