 How to work with translations as a developer:
 - Only add new translations to values/stings.xml, don't do this for other languages (it will be done via transifex).
 - Never change the key of a translation. If it really has to be changed, delete it and create a new entry instead.
-- If you change a value in values/strings.xml, also backport this to all stable branches.
+- Values in values/strings.xml are allowed to be modified. For bigger changes consider to add a new key-value pair.
+- Only the first letter of a sentence should be uppercase, all following words should be lowercase.
 - Translations are synced every night (or when manually triggered):
    - New entries are added to transifex.com
    - Updated translations from transifex are added via Nextcloud bot to this repo.
