Description
There are a lot of subjects like "Translations into ". I think they are mostly useless for Open Library as we already have info if that's translation or not on edition level.
I think, we may take works with subject "Translations into English" and mark all English editions of these works as translations, and then delete this subject from everywhere. Though, this can only be done after #6489 because currently it is not possible to do that without selecting from which language book was translated.
