Translations imported by bot - where are they from?

Translations imported by bot - where are they from?

Occasionally there are a few new MediaWiki translations imported into translatewiki.net by FuzzyBot. Could somebody explain where FuzzyBot is acquiring these translations? Is it trawling all Wikimedia projects for new translations?

This question is a symptom of the success of TWN I'd say, if I understood it correctly. :) Those are just the translations imported from SVN/Git which didn't come from TWN itself but were committed directly to the codebase, as everyone was forced to do before some Finn founded some wiki... Nowadays, this usually happens when a dev makes some mass correction to all messages including translations, as far as I can remember.
