Yes, this is correct. Those are references which need to be copied
verbatim.

This is my mistake. Sorry. Please read this as 
B<deluser(8)> and B<delgroup(8)>
and please do translate the "and". I don't know why the previous
translator did not translate it. Maybe Robert can comment on this?

Please use the polish rules for punctuation, not the english ones.

Formatting, putting this into bold or roman font. Actually the main
change is mentioned in your point 4:

Yes, this is the main change, so probably the update of the
translation is rather quick. Actully some translator noted that those
formatting issues are missing and this initiated the update.

Greetings
