The problem: after I install the localization (in my case, Russian) for Drupal, several strings are still being displayed in English.

When I do the search on Locale module page, these strings are in localized.profile. They seem properly translated, but translated versions do never appear on site and I see no obvious means to make them to.

Example: on create content page (node/add) the content types 'Page', 'Story' and their descriptions are never displayed translated.

I noticed also that the file profiles/default/default.profile in Drupal distribution uses st() function instead of t() to display the mentioned strings.

After the installation, these are "user provided content" (you can edit them on the web interface). Unless you used a localized interface to set the system up (ie. localized profile itself), these were not translated install time, and so are not stored as translated in the database. Feel free to modify/translate for your own liking.
