Hello,

I’ve noticed the `admins` and `moderators` group name are not translatable. Is there something I missed? I remember as if these could have been translated in the past. But I’m not sure about that.

I changed these strings:

`groups.default_names.moderators`  
`groups.default_names.admins`

But it didn’t change on these places I noticed.
