Comment:

 The `$comment_status`and `$delete_time` variables run through
 `$wpdb->prepare()`, which returns a sanitized query string.

 Regarding the translatable strings, I do not recommend refactoring them to
 add HTML markup and a `%s` placeholder for a link intended to remain at
 the end of the message. The [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/trunk/src/wp-admin/edit-comments.php#L395-L415 three
 messages] from [13247] have a consistent pattern, and they are already
 translated in more than 120 language locales.
