I think it was not a good idea to create these entries in tw directly. The
normal way is to create a dictionary as described and make a request at sf (or
send a mail to me as well). i18n dicts are placed in the rewrite branch. In
trunk release i18n directory is defined as svn:external which copies its
content from rewrite.
There is no automatic mechanism to synchonize these dicts from pywikipedia svn
to tw and vice versa. It is necessary to outcheck pwb svn at tw and to expand
the yaml config file at mw svn and perhaps run fuzzy bot to import the given
translations.
