All help labels disappear in automation plugin for English (UK)

When using the automation plugin, I found that there were no help labels to be seen.
After some sleuthing I found that this was caused by the fact that my user interface language was set to “English (UK)”.

Watch and see how they disappear when I switch language and refresh.

Hi @RGJ,

I am taking a look at this, I have noticed the locales file for the UK is mostly empty I will be talking to the team to address this issue

Usually, when a translation is missing in the locale file, there is a fallback to English (US).

I think the UK locale file is mostly empty because the fallback is everything they need, apart from the texts where the date format, wording, or spelling differs.

The bug reported by RGJ also happens in other locales where those texts are not fully translated, Vietnamese for example.

Shouldn’t it fall back to English US ?

EDIT @moin beat me to it :grinning_face:
