Move a translation text into a centralized file

We're starting a big project to revamp and refresh our internationalization systems, and one basic task we'd LOVE help with is to start moving translations around the site into a more centralized location to help make them easier to manage. This task will guide you through the steps one by one, and can be completed more than once by different people.

The steps include:

  1. Find a single translation
  2. Move the single line of text
  3. Be sure to get all the "nested" lines

The issue https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/issues/3515 walks through these step by step with examples and helpful tips. You can ask questions and we will help you figure it out -- leave a comment and open a pull request to get started!
