Description

I'm not sure if translation issues can be reported here but I didn't know where to report them. Also, I couldn't open this issue under the correct project.

The following applies to the greek version of the bug tracker. Someone else will have to check other languages (presumably the ones with grammatical gender).

While looking around the site I noticed that a user who I thought is female was referred to as if they are male. After looking around a little more I noticed that everyone is referred to the same way. This is an example(I am male btw just making a point): Under the title of the last issue I filed, there is the text "Προστέθηκε από τον Nickps πριν από 2 μήνες. "(lit.: Added by the Nickps 2 months ago.) The problem is that the word "τον" is a masculine definite article but the user's gender is not requested during the sign up process so it's just assumed(I'm not recommending that as the solution. I know it has its own problems).
