 * I have completed the italian translation of the Events Manager plugin by filling
   in the empty spaces in the .po file and fixing up a couple translations that 
   were already there. I would like to contribute my .po and .mo files, but I have
   found a couple of problems:
 * 1) the h3 title “Bookings” on a single event page is not localized, it stays “
   Bookings”. Where is this constructed? I see that I can customize templates but
   I’m not sure which one I have to customize, I have found “<h3>Bookings</h3>” 
   in only two files (em-install.php and includes/sample-placeholders/event-single-
   default.html). My guess is that it has something to do with this last file, and
   yet “Date/Time” and “Location” are localized while “Bookings” is not so I’m not
   even sure it is this last file.
 * 2) some nouns and adjectives are split up and translated separately, and while
   this works in english it just doesn’t work in other languages. For example “Booking
   approved” seems to be translated as two separate strings, and “approved” is used
   in more than one context. But in other languages such as italian, the gender 
   of the noun will change the ending on the adjective. So you can’t just use “approved”
   in any context. It’s better to keep “Booking approved” as one whole string and
   any other “nn approved” as one whole string and translate them like that. I’m
   seeing “Prenotazione confermato” (male adjective with female noun), which just
   doesn’t work in italian.
