For all other languages the tools regenerates the sections from scratch which makes them all use consistent format.
Ahh, so it more or less doesn't matter what's in the i18n.php section headings since the tools rebuild the file. I expanded this step in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Localisation#Update_of_localisation. I'm not sure it's worth telling people not to worry about something they may never notice :-) .
Another question: I add my name in @author comments to the 'en' and 'qqq' section headings. Should I instead just put it in the doc comments at the top of the file? (I authored the file so obviously I did those sections.) Presumably "the tools" add other names when they generate from translatewiki.
Thanks, it's a huge piece of infrastructure that works so well we don't think about it.
