Translating the templates themselves would seem the easiest route to go and make them very usable. An unfortunate side effect is the translate tags appear in the text. Would the Translatable Templates (TNT) somehow circumvent this? Or is there another solution that might occlude the translate tags?

I don't think we will be able to use TNT with our current service provider. It requires the "Scribunto" extension which allows us to run Lua scripts directly from the Wiki, but that requires that they allow us to run PHP's proc_open() function, which would allow us to execute arbitrary binaries on their server. They are understandably averse to that, so it is highly unlikely that they will grant that privilege. I am looking into the translate tag side effect. Have you run across any documentation that explains what's going on with it? --Jomegat (talk) 07:04, 8 October 2014 (EDT)
I have tried researching and familiarizing myself with everything to do with the translation extension, but have not seen any explanation or documentation about this side effect. I'll keep checking around and see what I can find. --w126jep (talk) 10:39, 8 October 2014 (EDT)
