[OSM-talk] Templates in the wiki

Hi!

At the moment I try to clean up a bit in the german section of the wiki, 
that is I try to translate missing pages and synchronize descriptions of 
tags.
During that I came across a lot of templates which is all very nice but 
it seems that all of them lack a way to control standard texts and 
internal links via a language argument. Just as an example the template 
"KeyDescription" has the texts "Description" and "Group" hard-coded in 
it. I would love it to read "Beschreibung" resp. "Gruppe".

Also the template "Map_Features:highway" has, as much as I understand 
it, no way of changing the key/value-links from the englisch to the 
language-specific.

Now, unfortunately I have not enough knowledge to implement something 
like that...

Could someone please do this, tell me how to do it or point me to a 
better place to plead my case?

Best regards, Florian Heer
