Sorry that it took ages to handle this bug report, but there are loads of them.

The italian translation has been updated since your report, I think, can
you confirm if this still happens now?

Additionally, it would be great if you could contact the translators of
the .po file, or to provide a patch direcly about this, because I am not
sure about all of the instances where this should be changed.


Cheers.
