which may not be that bad in some cases. When someone cares enough to create a template it is quite likely to be for an approved and well documented feature where there should not be much demand to edit it frequently by beginners. > Some people like these templates because it seems they can make new tag > values appear in non-english pages by adding them in the english page. > But this new value appears in english, so in my opinion it kinda defeats > the purpose of the non-english page... not too bad, some templates have example pictures which are almost as good as an native description. It depends how the template is used. However it is important that if something is changed in the English template the other languages at least see that there was a change.
