Hi Thomas,

Thanks Richard, yes, the Metadata Editor strings should be there 
if you update to the 28 August audacity.pot.

Those strings should be there too in the updated audacity.pot.

Arguably there should be a better solution than translating
the link text as it is, because the links go to the online released
Manual (English only), which is best for the majority of users:
http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/ .

So it would probably be more useful to translate the link text
as "(English only)". 

When any of the translations of the Manual are complete
(none are), then probably the translator should link to the 
translated Manual wherever it is (currently the incomplete 
translations are at http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/ ) .

If going to a translated Manual was to work from the Help Menu,
this needs coding changes in Audacity I believe. 

Anyhow, feel free to submit what you have as long as you have 
updated from the latest audacity.pot. I can get it into 2.0.4 if
you send it within about three hours from now.
