I think it might be easier to format and translate without using "by" since different languages express authorship differently

For example:
• Last updated on 2025-10-11 • Jane Doe
• Last updated on 2025-10-11 — Jane Doe

What about a mix?

For the languages that can handle it, add a translation. For the other ones, just add • or — as the default and show it when no translation is available:

Suggested change
{{- $by := (T "by") | default "by" -}}
{{- $by := (T "by") | default "•" -}}

WDYT?

yeah, that sounds good.

ideally this should be templated, but we don't have to do it right now

Sorry for the delay, finally I left the dot because for languages without translation, it was using English as the default, and not the default string as I suggested.
