Bug Description

Translations for obsolete distroseries can continue to take up server resources: spiders still crawl their pages, people can still translate, we still generate suggestions for them, and files can still be uploaded.

We can use the hide_translations flag to "turn off" these obsolete translations. The only problem is that the templates currently say that translations are hidden because we are copying translations in bulk. There can be other reasons to hide translations as well, e.g. data migrations, so we could update the language there to be more generic.

Nope, nope, it's not that. Then edge and staging must not have updated.
