36950	"Django admin login page: ""Forgotten your password or username?"" is not translated in Japanese locale"	Ryu		"Description:

On the Django admin login page, the text:

""Forgotten your password or username?""

is not translated when the active language is set to Japanese (ja).

Even though the locale is properly configured and other texts on the admin login page are translated into Japanese, this specific string remains in English.

However, according to the source, the Japanese translation does exist in the django.po file:

https://github.com/django/django/blob/a73eed2b5d6dbc78e95482dbd79809b4bd6dd1fd/django/contrib/admin/locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/django.po#L572-L573

so it appears that the translation entry is present, but not being applied in practice.
