McDutchie added a comment to T316871: [[Wikimedia:Convenient-discussions-thread-expand-label]] cannot be translated as is.

The translated Dutch message had the code changed from the original (from {{plural:$2|{{gender:$4|}}|{{gender:$4|}} to {{plural:$2|{{gender:$4|}}) to avoid the error. Translators should not have to change the code to avoid errors. Not every translator has that skill set, and in any case, the code in the original should be correct and usable as is.

There is no obligation for translations to use PLURAL in the same format as the English original, they can use it in whatever way they need to generate correct grammar in the target language.

If they don’t share a single latest version, why does this message mention one “latest version”? Why isn’t it

The latest versions of these pages have been marked for translation.

You're quite simply wrong. The prepositional phrase ‘of these pages’ is removable and is irrelevant for subject-verb agreement.

McDutchie reopened T270854: [[MediaWiki:Tpt-old-pages/en]] grammar issue as "Open".

@Reedy, the very page you are citing proves that "has" is the correct form, because "version" is a singular noun. "The latest version have been marked" is wrong.

My English is not native, but native speakers (including my partner) tell me it's pretty close. Yet I didn't find these terms intuitive in the least. The moral of the story is, if users with above-average English require a dictionary to use your software, you're doing it wrong.
