Strings that contain placeholders — such as `%s`, `%d`, and `%1$s` —
should include accompanying translator comments. This provides context to
translators and allows for more accurate translations.
The meaning of even seemingly simple strings containing placeholders may
not be clear to translators who are not intimately familiar with
WordPress, unless a translator comment is provided.
