Automatic translation of templates depending on page language
i. e. if a template is used on an English page it displays in English, but when the same template is used on a German page it is in German. Something like this doesn't exist here yet, does it? If not, I'd be willing to implement it. --dgelessus (talk &middot; contribs) 19:50, 12 October 2013 (BST)
 * we do have it on About and I am considering to coordinate an effort to do it if I have enough translators. And this goes to the Translators' Noticeboard. --  Jin bo  bo  21:25, 12 October 2013 (BST)
 * Okay, felt free enough to move this over. If you don't mind I'll create a shorthand template containing that switch, cause it would be annyoing to reconstruct it every time. --dgelessus (talk &middot; contribs) 21:48, 12 October 2013 (BST)
 * Sure, but I'd rather it be modular so I won't need to update the base template every time we add a new language. --  Jin bo  bo  05:14, 13 October 2013 (BST)
 * How exactly would you make it modular? --dgelessus (talk &middot; contribs) 15:05, 13 October 2013 (BST)
 * Make it so the template code would be like:


 * like what the langbar currently is. --  Jin bo  bo  17:57, 13 October 2013 (BST)
 * Sorry for not responding for so long, have been quite busy lately. I've thought about how to make the template modular, which is mostly possible, except for one feature that I integrated. That is a sort of dialect fallback system, i. e. if a translation for pt exists it will be used on pt-br as well (if there is no translation given for it). Now currently the only dialect we have is Brazilian Portuguese and I'm not quite sure how useful or important this feature would be, but I haven't found a way to implement that one in a modular way. --dgelessus (talk &middot; contribs) 22:49, 24 October 2013 (BST)

Important or Not Important
I saw that Български is written български. It is spelled with lower case, but i'm not sure if this should or shouldn't be changed -- sokratis 12GR  09:54, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Wait, which is correct? --  Satanic Santa F T B Wiki Admin 10:12, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
 * It is written as български but the correct is Български. -- sokratis 12GR  10:14, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
