Description
settings.LANGUAGE_CODE = 'zh-cn'
When viewing some model's history in auto-Admin interface, the date time display is
SunPMChina Standard TimeE_340China Standard Time19_China Standard Time0八月E_八月1221304880TrueTrue
django/conf/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/django.po
#: contrib/admin/templates/admin/object_history.html:26
msgid "DATE_WITH_TIME_FULL"
msgstr "DATE_WITH_TIME_FULL"
This is obviously wrong
When I changed it to Y-m-d H:M:S
it displays
2008-08-24 19:八月:th
Which is also wrong.
Is there a way to change it to: "2008-08-25 23:49:21"? Which is the most common way ppl see datetime here in China. I do not know how to write date/time strings corretly sorry :-(
I see there's a similar ticket here http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/880

Moving to translation component, since it's a localisation issue, not a bug in the code.

I attached a patch with the formats for dates/times in Chinese. Could anybody (fluent in Chinese) check it? I don't know if used formats are the best ones to use.
Anyway, I think that there is a bug in the code. Dates should be displayed in English locale unless the current locale has one, so those strange string are a buggy behavior.

(hit <enter> too quickly) The idea is to close this ticket once we commit the translation update.

I'm going to commit this, since it shouldn't make things any worse than they are now and will help a little bit. Hopefully a Chinese speaker can do a full translation update before 1.0.

I found this ticket when searching a solution to my zh_CN problem. I can help to translate messages in django/conf/locale/zh_CN/LC_MESSAGES/django.po. Could you show me the proper way to do the job? I am not familiar with patch/diff tools. Can I just attach a 'django.po' as an attachment? Thanks.

#8550 mentioned the same problem for
DATETIME_FORMAT. Looks like a number of the technical messages ids are translated incorrectly for Chinese. The way to fix this is for somebody to fix the PO file. First, they should read the discussion of technical message ids in the internationalisation documentation (search for"DATETIME_FORMAT"to find the right place) and then translate appropriately.
