Description
In contrib/auth/forms.py class UserChangeForm the help_text is saying
"Raw passwords are not stored, so there is no way to see the user’s password."
while the .po file still has the old text:
"Raw passwords are not stored, so there is no way to see this user’s "
"password, but you can change the password using <a href=\"{}\">this form</a>."
So this message is shown in English only.

Thanks Werner for the report.
The strings don't match because the translation was not updated on Transifex. We are not updating the .po files for any language which didn't see any update since some Django string change, because it would not change anything in practice. Even if the .po file was up-to-date, the string would not be translated anyway (being either
fuzzyor untranslated).
