Learning: In the holidays library, translator comments and translations should consistently use the "observed, estimated" order pattern. Guinea-Bissau (GW.po) was identified as having an inconsistent "estimated, observed" comment that needs to be fixed to match the established convention.

Learning: For the holidays project, localization file formatting issues (like missing terminal periods in .po files) should be automatically fixed by running `make l10n` command (which is included in `make check`). Authors should be directed to use this automated tooling instead of manual formatting fixes.

Learning: For missing translator comments in .po localization files in the holidays repository, direct authors to run `make l10n` or `make check` commands instead of suggesting manual fixes, as these commands automatically handle translator comment generation.

Learning: When fixing localization issues in the holidays project, corrections should be made in both the Python source code comments and the en_US .po file msgstr entries, then all other language .po files should be regenerated to pick up the corrected en_US comments.

Learning: Holiday name comments directly above tr() function calls in the holidays package should only contain the holiday name itself (e.g., "# Independence Day.") without any additional context, dates, or historical information.

Learning: In the holidays library, function names and comments follow en_US spelling conventions (e.g., "Labor Day"), while the default strings may use different locale conventions (e.g., "Labour Day" for en_PK) and are translated appropriately using the gettext function.
