I would argue request-pull message shouldn't be translated.

The person who creates the request may prefer to use a different
language, let's say French, for day-to-day work.

However, the recipients may not understand French, and prefer to
receive English message.

And this change break their workflow badly.

Hence, I think this message shouldn't be translated.

And neither should this message.
