Seems there is something wrong with voting to undelete a question.

When I vote to undelete site says:

Your delete vote has been recorded

I don't have enough rep on English-based SE sites, so can only provide screenshots from Stack Overflow in Russian:

un-delete

According to transifex Russian phrase:

Ваш голос за удаление учтён

corresponds to original English phrase:

Your delete vote has been recorded

Actual phrase for undelete should be:

Your undelete vote has been recorded

Update:

Nowadays I can vote to undelete here on MSE, and can confirm that English message is okay:

enter image description here

Hence here is something wrong with translation mechanism. For some reason on ruSO (and maybe other localized sites) is used translation from “delete vote” source instead of “undelete vote”.

  • I can't recall having voted to undelete on any site (though I have the privilege somewhere, I think), but why do you think this is a network-wide issue, and not just only on Russian language sites? (+1, by the way)

  • @Shokhet as far as I know at least all localized SO sites (ru, pt, es, jp) use same code base. Commented Apr 26, 2017 at 3:22
  • That may be true (and is, as far as I know), but the message you're talking about is clearly a different message than what would show on EngSO or any other English language site. I've never seen Cyrillic characters in system messages on any SE site I've used. However, this [bug] may be more visible to the devs here than it would be on RuSO, so there's that.

    @Shokhet I have an access to translations on ruSO, so I can see original English sentences which would be used if no translation present. Commented Apr 26, 2017 at 3:30
