Hi Gabriel, We Japanese community faced the same problem. When I reported it to Transifex GitHub, I got the following response. https://github.com/transifex/transifex/issues/239 https://github.com/transifex/transifex/issues/219 PO file is generated from various kind of sources which includes program sources or normal documents. Program sources may constains several % specifiers and % character has a special meaning. On the other hand, % is a normal character in normal documents (including OpenStack documents). Trasifex behavior mainly focuses on the former. Transifex cannot know from what source uploaded PO files are generated. I think Transifex needs an additional attribute to specify a type of PO files to address this issue. At this moment, we need to escape % character to avoid this problem in Transifex. Thanks, Akihiro P.S. I often translates message strings extracted from program sources and this feature of Transifex is really helpful for such contents.

Hello everyone,
Recently I faced the '%' problem from Transifex described here.

This does looks like an issue in Transifex. Have anyone talked with the Transifex guys to ask if they are aware of that? I searched their issues but there isn't any about it.

Thanks, Gabriel Wainer.
