Looks fine, expect a few minor issues:

Could you please change Last-Translator (and the comment header above
that as well) to reflect reality? :)

You have added an additional "\n" at the end of the message, which is
detected as an error by our build tools (I see how this can happen,
no problem and I could fix that myself, just doing full-disclosure here).

There are multiple messages marked as "fuzzy", which means that some
tool has detected that the msgid changed slightly, but believes the
msgstr could still apply and hence keeps it here for reference, but it
isn't displayed to the user, so it would be nice if you could review
these messages and either fix them and/or unmark them as fuzzy.


I am not sure what you are using to edit the translation and I am not
too familiar with the tools even if I would know, but I know that a lot
of tools exist to help translators in various ways which could highlight
these and other potential problems with the translation, so you might
want to look into this as well.
(Running a popularity contest on the other po files suggests that others
are using Lokalize (previously KBabel), Poedit or virtaal – if they
provide this type of information.)
