On the other hand, there are variables like

<FIELDNAME1>
<FIELDNAME2>
<FIELD>
<LOGICOPERATOR>
<VALUE>

that really should not be translated.
This search reveals a few of them:
https://translations.documentfoundation.org/da/libo_ui/translate/#search=%3CF&sfields=source&soptions=exact&unit=28753831
So maybe the wiki should have said:
• *<X>*, where X is a word in uppercase letters, is *normally* a variable
which should not be translated. Some examples are <FIELDNAME>, <FIELD>,
<LOGICOPERATOR> and <VALUE>.
• *<FILENAME>* is NOT a variable, though, and you should translate it!
But let us get some input from people with knowledge on the subject. :-)
It is hard to give rules when it comes to LibreOffice, which uses a
mix of technologies. <FILENAME> in backgroundpage.ui is a placeholder,
it will be replaced by the actual filename. It does not matter what
you write there (translated or not), it will be replaced. So it would
be better to make <FILENAME> non-translatable in the source (I've just
done it), and do not confuse translators with exceptions.
Regards,
Andras
