Repro Steps

  1. Set Windows display language / WSL locale to Japanese (ja-JP).
  2. Run wslc image list --help and wslc image import --help.
  3. Compare the Japanese wording used for "image" across the different help/output strings.

Expected Behavior

The term "Image" (container image) should be translated consistently as「イメージ」throughout the ja-JP UI, matching the vast majority of existing strings (e.g. イメージを管理します。, Dockerfile からイメージをビルドします。).

Actual Behavior

A handful of strings in localization/strings/ja-JP/Resources.resw translate "Image" as「画像」instead, which reads as "picture/photo" in Japanese rather than "container image", and is inconsistent with the rest of the file:

Resource name Current Should be
