For those of you not following the tasks on Phabricator, there are fixes going out with this week's train (at the latest) that will hopefully solve the issues.
Thanks for reporting and giving information in Phab, folks.

Hello,
It seems that the Translate extension in its current state on MediaWiki.org is very buggy. As I’ve finished to translate the Phase 2 report of the Talk pages consultation [1], I see that some messages are replaced by others.
Look there: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Translations:Talk_pages_consulta... You can see in the history that I’ve translated ‘German Wikipedia’ to ‘Wikipédia en allemand’. But if you look at the content (click on the date or on the ‘Translations’ tab), you will see that it contains ‘[fr]’, which is the placeholder that I use to mark as translated the English translations of French quotations in the report. ‘[fr]’ uses only 4 bytes, but the history shows ‘22 bytes’ which corresponds to the case of ‘Wikipédia en allemand’ which is made of: 20 1-byte characters + 1 2-byte char = 20 × 1 + 1 × 2 = 22 bytes (The character ‘é’ uses 2 bytes when you use the common UTF-8 encoding.)
Translators, take care not to work too much these days, or your good work might be corrupted — :(… A storm has touched our dear software which worked so well before.
