I'd suggest leaving this one as is.

In Russian, we translate Edit user in this string differently than a regular Edit User link, to avoid unnecessary repeating user.

@SergeyBiryukov Curious how you handle the strings for post updates, see trunk/src/wp-admin/edit-form-advanced.php?marks=94-162#L92.

#6 @SergeyBiryukov

@ocean90 In a similar way, we omit post and page in "Preview post" and "Preview page" (as those strings are not used elsewhere).

Ok, because "Edit User" is only used once for the title of user-edit.php and it has some references in the help tabs.
"Edit user" is only used in this string. So theoretically your still could omit the "user" part here.
But maybe I'm missing something. :-)

Replying to ocean90:

Yep, as long as these strings are not merged in a ticket like #18218.

"Edit User" is a heading and "Edit user" here is a call to action, so they do need to be translated differently. A separate context would be fine :)

We wouldn't blindly merge those, but yeah, I get your point. Fine with leaving it as is.

I guess we could reconsider this and add a context for the Edit user string, message link or something like that.

There are three pairs of these strings:

New user created.
New user created. <a href="%s">Edit user</a>

User has been added to your site.
User has been added to your site. <a href="%s">Edit user</a>

User added.
User added. <a href="%s">Edit user</a>

@SergeyBiryukov, we can replace the following 6 translation strings:

New user created.
New user created. <a href="%s">Edit user</a>

User has been added to your site.
User has been added to your site. <a href="%s">Edit user</a>

User added.
User added. <a href="%s">Edit user</a>

with only 4 translation strings:

New user created.

User has been added to your site.

User added.

----

Edit user
