So, Casey, could you please summerize the situation and point out the process to translate the button?
Thank you,

Who did have the nonsensical idea to use an image button? Text on images means hardcoding, such texts are untranslateable unless new buttons are created for every language. That is a symptom of ignorance.
I would assume that it's because images are often easier to implement. The hard-coding wasn't a problem when this was implemented because it was only being used on English banners.
It actually turns out that they had the same idea we did and added it to the editor appeal banners: < http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:NoticeTemplate/view?template=20101211...
So it looks like we have an easy fix now... WMUK can just copy the button text into their banners. :-)
