No. You must never do that. The exact wording of the legal notices is very important and a translation not approved by lawyers is very risky.

Just leave the original English notice intact when it covers legal matters.

Include the nature of the problem, the project/resource, the time (in UTC) it happened and your Fedora username. If you suspect it might be a problem with the particular file you are uploading or the target file, include that information as well.

This wasn't a question, by the way. Nevermind. The following might have gone wrong:
 
* The strings in question have not been marked for translation by the developer, hence they haven't been included in the POT file, and thus not in the PO file. He needs to use gettext on them.
* The source files of these strings have not been marked for inclusion, in the intltool case.
* The POT file of Transifex is not up to date. The component page includes the date when the POT file has been produced. If this is more than a few hours in the past, please notify the admins, otherwise it should be OK.

If you want the Fedora Localization Project to handle your translations (i.e. you are NOT an upstream project):
 
# Click 'Access Control' on your Project Details Page
# Outsource team control to "The Fedora Project"
# Send an email to fedora-trans-list and let the contributors know about the change. One of the Fedora L10n Editors will add your project to one of the Fedora releases.
