Well, I'm not really a translator but I happen to be able to understand german, although not always really understanding Germans. ;) Germans really do like abbreviations, but to me that is mostly more confusing than helping. Maybe that is just because I have to memorize dozens of germans and english abbreviations... I always wondered about the w in the english native version as well as about the + in the translation. Now you posted this I finally get it. :D Is it really so crucial for the length of a message string that you can't just write "wonder" or "built" in it? Though I don't really see why this info text is particulary necessary anyways, as this particulary piece of news is the very reason of the message itself. I would like to see it only in the production info or progress bar as "available" ("verfügbar") or "built" ("gebaut"), but that would mean some more work for all the other language translators...
