The line you need to edit is this one.

You then need to run makepot in the root directory to regenerate Cinnamon.pot. Actually, given that the only thing that will change in the Cinnamon.pot file when regenerated is the line you've already edited, you can probably get away with editing the .pot manually as you already have. Just make sure the string matches the one you change in cinnamon-settings-users.py
