Capitalized names for czech language

[Petr Marhoun <petr.marhoun@…>]

In Django this kind of translations is used for my language:

msgid "Add %s"
msgstr "%s: přidat"

msgid "Change %s"
msgstr "%s: změnit"

So "Add contact" is translated as "kontakt: přidat" - title is not capitalized. So I would like if admin capitalizes all titles. It is possible, I use it in my branch.

I thought that this kind of change should be sent to django-developers mailing list first. But there was no answer so there is a ticket.

I would like to create patch - if you think that it can be applied.

I want to fix these problems:

#: contrib/admin/options.py:524
#, python-format
msgid "Add %s"
msgstr "%s: přidat"

#: contrib/admin/templates/admin/change_list.html:18
#, python-format
msgid "Add %(name)s"
msgstr "%(name)s: přidat"

#: contrib/admin/options.py:599
#, python-format
msgid "Change %s"
msgstr "%s: změnit"

#: contrib/admin/views/main.py:150
#, python-format
msgid "Select %s"
msgstr "%s: vybrat"

#: contrib/admin/views/main.py:150
#, python-format
msgid "Select %s to change"
msgstr "%s: vybrat pro změnu"

#: contrib/admin/templates/admin/pagination.html:10
#, python-format
msgid "%(count)s %(verbose_name)s"
msgstr "%(verbose_name)s: %(count)s"

#: contrib/admin/templates/admin/pagination.html:12
#, python-format
msgid "%(count)s %(verbose_name_plural)s"
msgstr "%(verbose_name_plural)s: %(count)s"

The last two are from #5425 so it depends on resolution of the patch.

I am sorry, my patch depends on some other patches - it is for simple merging. So my patch can't be applied without problem. But I would like to prepare proper patch, if it would be accepted.

new version - after autoescape merge (depends only on #5425 now)

[Karen Tracey <kmtracey@…>]

Old admin looks to be no different from newforms-admin for this issue, so this should not block merge.

This is really in conflict with how we want to proceed in #5518. If a translation (or other) is providing a string, we aren't going to mess around with the capitalization. The translator will know best what they want to do.
