Hi Janek,

thank you for your interest in translations! I'll try to find out the 
information about the strings you mention.

The situation here is simple: Notification events, including their 
translations, are part of the eventsrc file, not part of the program. The 
eventsrc file is a file that is "desktop style" - see

https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdepowersave/src/branch/master/src/eventsrc

Integrating desktop style files into TDE Weblate is the second level of 
integration because it required preparation on the side of building 
programs. And right now, with the release of R14.0.8, we are launching 
this second level of integration! Several desktop style files are already 
integrated into TDE Weblate. However, after the release of R14.0.8 we will 
gradually add other desktop style files.

So stay tuned!

If you mean the title of the User Interface tab, this is the same case as 
the previous one with TDEPowersave - see

https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdebase/src/branch/master/kcontrol/konqhtml/tdehtml_userinterface.desktop

If you mean the items on this tab, these are part of the TDE Weblate 
component tdebase / kcmkonqhtml - see

Unfortunately I'm not sure what the dialog box is.

You can use the source string search in TDE Weblate. When searching, you 
can remember that the source string may contain a '&' character that 
serves as a wildcard for a shortcut key.

If the source string is not found, it is possible that it is part of a 
desktop style file that is not yet integrated into TDE Weblate. In such 
cases, it's good to let someone know about it - for example, in ML, like 
you did. Or at IRC, where Chris is often available to help.
