It's computer generated html, and it's old (from 2003/4). Look here for the text with proper umlauts:

OK. Here it is:
переведена на [ переводчика]

So, the second line of the disclaimer should be:

[ Название Монолог ] от [ характера ] из [ Играть название, акт, сцена ] из пьесы Вильяма Шекспира, переведена на [ переводчика], прочитано на русском языке для Librivox DOT org. [от [ваше имя]].

Translation: [ Title of Monologue ] by [character] from [ name of the play , act , scene ] from the play by William Shakespeare , translated by [ translator ] , read in Russian for Librivox DOT org. [ by [ your name ] ] .

Here's the intro and outro in Polish:

POCZĄTEK nagrania (intro)
"Monolog [Tytuł monologu] wygłaszany przez [imię postaci] z [tytuł sztuki] Williama Szekspira [akt, scena] czytany po polsku dla Librivox.org. Czyta [Twoje imię albo pseudonim]
[tekst monologu]
KONIEC nagrania
Na końcu nagrania powiedz:
Koniec [tytuł monologu] ze sztuki [tytuł, akt, scena]. To nagranie jest w domenie publicznej.
Jeśli chcesz, dodaj:
"Nagrane przez [imię albo pseudonim], [miasto, adres Twojej strony internetowej, bloga, etc]

As for the source, I took this monologue from www.wolnelektury.pl and it's based on a LV-eligible text. I have to check, if other plays they have are also taken from pre-1923 sorces, though, so don't add this website to your list yet. Oftentimes, they take texts from modern editions just because the author is PD as per EU rules. It's confusing.

Hi again,
I was wondering if I could submit another monologue from the same play (Hamlet), and one by a male character. If you have gendered casting, then that's fine, but if it's gender-neutral I'd very much like to record another Hamlet monologue by one of the male characters, as there's less choice for the female ones :)

Hi, it's me again! I've just uploaded a new version of my monologue. The only thing that's changed is the track volume - I amplified it slightly after realising it was too quiet. Here you go:
