The simple core cck node types aren't translated on node/add. Instead, they are created using t(). We usually translate on output, not input. System.install shoudl be changed to remove the t() functions in system_update_1005 and a function node_node_info should provide correctly translated strings to node_add.

I follow up this issue.
I used i18n on my site, but I found that many places couldn't be translated. Especially CCK fields.
Some setting and admin link have the same problem.
Hope this issue could be fixed as quickly as well.

tky: Your issue is unrelated.

I am won't fixing this. The problem comes from the fact that story/page are now cck node types and no node types of their own anymore.

Thank you for your reply. But I don't understand completely.
So I guess that this translation problem is cause by CCK but not System.install?
And we should wait for the CCK's(or locale's) author(s) to fix it?

Sorry, I must misunderstood your words somewhere.
I am bothered by this problem since 4.7 version; I thought it will be fixed on 5.0 but it's not.
Would you give some clues to find the way out?
Thanks again.

Drupal currently doesn't support i18n very well. That's the short version.
