Dutch wiki does fit the phrasing but could use some improvements.

It took me a while to spot this: the buttons overflow out of the dialog because of how long the translations are.

Yes. That appears to be correct. Is there a reason the box has to be a fixed height? Is it easy to fix this?

@Mattflaschen-WMF says we manually set the width and height of the popup with width: NNNpx !important. He says the width should be passed in in JS, and we should avoid specifying the height.
