Find and fix syntax errors in one translated message
Please read https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T148121 for the complete task description!
https://translatewiki.net/ contains source and translated messages for many projects, including MediaWiki and many extensions.
The source messages often contain syntax that must be preserved in the translated message, per https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Localisation_guidelines; checkers are designed to prevent mistakes.
Translators occasionally either omit or corrupt the syntax in the translation.
This task is to find and fix one translated message that has incorrect syntax. You can use UI search, manual search, or automated tools.
To fix the translation syntax, create an account on https://translatewiki.net/ . See https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:How_to_start for more information, and be sure to use https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:WebChat to chat with translation management team and mentors after you have completed a few test translations. They can give you the 'translator' right, so you can complete this task. Add a link to your translatewiki contributions in your task submission.
An example of this task being done is: https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=MediaWiki%3APagetitle-view-mainpage%2Fkri&type=revision&diff=7138660&oldid=3536925
