Background of the issue:
I have a custom taxonomy on my site under development that I set to not be translatable. I am trying to manage translations for this taxonomy.
Symptoms:
Translations have been added for all of the terms in the custom taxonomy, even though it is set as not translatable.
Questions:
Why are translations being added to a taxonomy set as not translatable?
How can I prevent WPML from translating this custom taxonomy?
I have one CPT with two taxonomies (Filters and Countries).
One taxonomy was set as translatable (Filters) and the second (Countries) was set as not translatable.
We decided that also the one that was set as translatable didn't need to be translatable so we changed it to not translatable but after this change the Countries end up having duplicated terms one for each translation!
Why the change to one taxonomy affected the other?
Also is there a way to remove all those duplicated now from Country taxonomy?

Although this topic is related to the other, it is a bit different.
It is strange because the taxonomy that was set as non-translatable when Save was clicked in the WPML settings (Taxonomies section) WPML created translated terms!
The strange part is that the created terms had also assigned posts.
Just to be sure, I deleted all the terms, created my own terms and then tried to change the option of the other taxonomy from translatable to non-translatable and again added translated terms to Countries taxonomy which is from the start as non-translatable.
Can you think of any reasons for this?
Another taxonomy affecting another?
Or the save button is just updating all the taxonomies settings and there is a bug?
