 Replying to [comment:7 Nao]:
 > I just want to help translators become aware that they can complete
 Stable and high & normal priority readme strings then move on to next
 project. But currently, the combined stats on pages like
 [https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/ja/default/wp-plugins/akismet
 this] (83% at the moment) tend to make them feel they need to bring it to
 100%.

 pack for the plugin is only available when 95% of the "Stable (latest
 release)" sub-project strings have been translated. Currently, only 76%
 are translated.

 Adding such a note to these projects is totally doable, and something I
 would definately support.
 I agree that it's not a very transparent process for translators (and
 plugin/theme authors alike) currently and I often see those "I've got it
 50% translated, when will a language pack be made?" questions as well.

 If someone can propose some exact wording (even if it's just what @Nao has
 posted), we can get it in there. I'd love to see a link to any relevant
 handbook pages in there too.
