expected NOT be being used in any part of the manual.
-If an entity moved here is used in a language in your control,
-this means that the entity on the original file is planned to be
-removed, or already was removed.

-DO NOT TRANSLATE THIS FILE.
+If an entity moved here is used in a translation in your control,
+this means that the entity on the original files is planned to be
+removed, or already was removed, but are temporarily moved here,
+to avoid breaking translations.
This file is tracked by revcheck, so translations have a heads up
-when an entity is removed from doc-en. On translations, leave an
-empty element at the end of file, only updating the revtag.
+when an entity is removed from doc-en (by revcheck diff links).
+That said, do NOT sync or copy the file CONTENTS in translations,
+otherwise doc-base/scripts/text-entities.php will generate wrong
+statistics, and worse, it will NOT help your translation in
+finding wrong entity usage in your language.
+
+ON TRANSLATIONS, LEAVE EMPTY.
+ON TRANSLATIONS, ONLY UPDATE THE REVTAG.
