I corrected it. Please be careful and select the correct language before translating !!!

Hi Seb35,
translations are still welcome and needed in these languages (French, Italian, Russian, Dutch). There has been, or maybe still is, a weird technical issue with the first banner's translation group, e.g. the stats page at [1] was claiming until a few hours age this group has 0 units (and 0 have been translated in any language, even though it has 3 units and translations already existed (e.g. [2]), being shown to millions of mobile readers over the last few days. The message you encountered looks like a different symptom of the same problem.
It is looking OK now again though, are you able to enter French translations at [3] now?
The issue is particularly strange because the translation group for the second banner did not show the same behavior (i.e. the stats at [4] continued to correctly show it as containing 3 messages, and recorded the existing translations correctly as well). That's even though both banners are completely identical except for the text,[5][6] and I didn't see anything in the logs that could have caused that difference. I strongly suspect it's a bug. Or is there another explanation? Any insights are welcome.

I get the message "This message group is empty", is it too late to
translate
or is it a misconfiguration?
Thanks, ~ Seb35

As many may already have seen, the new, fully revamped mobile Wikipedia app for Android was just released.[1] To bring it to the attention of mobile readers of Wikipedia, we are currently running banners (restricted to Android devices) which still need to be translated into the following languages:
French, Italian, Russian, Japanese, Dutch
(Together with English and German, these correspond to the top 10 languages - including variants - where the app is available in a localized version of sufficient quality, according to the developer team. The banners can be translated into other languages too, but they should only run in a language if the app is available in that language, too.)
The text of the banners:
"The new official Wikipedia app for Android: Faster speed, offline reading, and more." Translate at:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=Cen...
"32 million articles, 280+ languages, one app Download the new Wikipedia app now" Translate at:

Many thanks!
