And now, to my horror, I realise that the yes/no/partial templates had 
been used incorrectly in the page. I should have fixed the use of the 
templates before marking the page for translation. Unfortunately, I will 
be unable to do this before Monday next week. I hope it is not an 
inconvenience, but please refrain from touching the translations until I 
fix things.

I will have to
1. enable translations for the templates themselves
2. translate their texts to the languages I mentioned in the previous 
email
3. make it so the template instances in the table cells are always of 
the format {{yes}}, so all additional text is always outside the 
instance
4. refer to the templates using the form {{yes{{#translation:}}}}, so 
the desired translation will be picked from the template translation
