Awesome, that means you have created a translation for the sagenb (Sage
Notebook) user interface. But that won't include translations for other
parts of Sage, such as the documentation of library functions, the
manual, things like that.

I'm CCing the sage-devel and sage-notebook mailing lists to solicit
further advice from Sage developers who are more active these days than
I am. But since you have created those messages.po and messages.mo, I
think a good step would be to make a pull request on github to have them
added to the sagenb repository.

I assume you mean in the sense of being able to cite your translation as
an academic publication? I will defer this question to the Sage lists
as well, since I am not familiar enough with relevant citation
conventions to answer this question.

That's a good question. It will all depend on the release manager's
schedule.

I understand. As I said, probably the best people to answer that
question will be on the Sage mailing lists. So please reply to all
instead of directly to me, so that others can also see your messages :)

Thanks,
