Bug Description
The buttons for statistics/census are found in the action menu, in the tab titled "Watched". These two buttons are used to toggle building names and productivity, respectively.
Currently, the buttons display only a letter, which is the first letter in the name. When translated, the names might change and what the buttons does will be less obvious. My suggestion would be to replace the letters with some proper icons, for instance a house and the percent sign (%), with text placed on. This would indicate what kind of information the buttons offer, and how the information will be shown. Just a suggestion, feel free to ignore it, or make your own suggestions.
However, by replacing the icons, they could better communicate what they do, and would also handle translations better.
I am aware this is mostly an issue for the media team, but I posted it in both projects, as I have the impression the main widelands bug tracker is read by more people.
