Just adding "latin" to
"Enter a valid 'slug' consisting of letters, numbers, underscores or hyphens."
will fix this.

It could be fixed in translations only, yes. Maybe a note to translators?
In current state translators and users have no hint that it's only Latin letters. Cyrillic and other completely different alphabets aside, I guess this regex doesn't even include German umlauts, isn't it?

A hint to translators may be best, but I'm not sure how that works. Someone could start a thread on the DevelopersMailingList to propose another solution.

Hinting translators with
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/i18n/translation/#comments-for-translators looks best to me too. Paul, would you like to do it?

I'm not sure about the suggested wording. At least for English speakers, I think "letters" is less confusing than "latin letters".
