Thread:Support/About Template:Project subtitle (2)/reply (3)

And this is what I did: the subpaged templates are unnecessarily complicated, I just reused some interface messages and created MediaWiki:bw-portal-desc. This approach is superior IMHO, it only requires an edit like [//translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=MediaWiki:Betawiki-messages&diff=prev&oldid=4190533 this] to work and now it's translatable [//translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translate&group=wiki-betawiki&taction=translate with the normal interface]. This system is described at mw:Help:Extension:Translate/Unstructured element translation and you're encouraged to do the same to any part of the interface which we have and is worth translating (it should work, report when it doesn't and Niklas will find the reason :p).
