From 8e96d42ad6a3a87f5e7f7f2789641f3019785755 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eddie Greiner-Petter Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2017 05:18:26 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Improve qqq for i18n message at Special:Userrights Remove vagueness by adding documentation for this, as translators had problems with the terms "put back" and "bring forward". Also fix minor lack of precision in those messages.
