---------------------------+-------------------------------
The {{{|pluralize}}} template filter cannot be used to pluralize words in
projects using the i18n system, but this is not mentioned in the docs for
that filter, i.e. on
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/templates/builtins/.
The proper way to pluralize strings is to use
{{{django.utils.translation.ungettext()}}} and friends. The docs at
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/i18n/internationalization/#pluralization
explain this very well already, so may I suggest to refer to this part of
the documentation from the {{{|pluralize}}} template filter documentation?
