All right, I managed to sneak in several hours of work during the 
weekend after all. Thanks to Adolfo, who intervened at a time the 
behaviour of MediaWiki had me completely confused regarding the 
translation of templates.

So now the templates

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Template:Yes
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Template:No
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Template:Partial

have translations in es, fr, ja, ko, ru, sl, tr, zh-tw and zh-hans (and 
some extra ones thanks to Adolfo). I am not 100% sure about Partial in 
zh-tw and zh-hans, so do correct me if I messed it up.

The cache for the translated Feature comparison pages has been busted by 
translating the Introduction heading. You can now proceed with 
translating the page.

Even more work was put into excluding unnecessary strings from the 
translations. Hopefully everything is fine.
