The bottom 4 strings need to be documented that all languages except DE were added by us.

Does the number comma really make sense? Commas are already used for the number list.

I am fine with it, just raising that it perhaps is odd. Maybe a native US person can give their 2 cents on this.

I added "," to US 1000, because in one of the original text lines it was written as 10,000

ChatGPT response:
In U.S. English, it's standard to use a comma in numbers 1,000 and above (e.g., 1,000; 10,000; 100,000). So your text is correct as is.
However, some style guides (like in coding or scientific contexts) might omit the comma for readability or consistency (e.g., 1000 instead of 1,000). But in general writing, especially for things like game achievements, the comma is preferred.

I think dot makes more sense for German numbers.

So make it 1.000 and 10.000 for German?

Yes I think the dot is ok for German.
