Description

From
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Wiki_Menu#Structure_of_the_template :

"Attention: In a localized menu template you should not use the {{Lang|}}, but {{ManualLang}} (see it's documentation page for how to use it).

The reason is that for the Template-namespace the subside feature isn't enabled so you won't get the right links.

For more information about that look at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgNamespacesWithSubpages"

This turned off feature is causing seldom, but useless problems when creating / improving templates on our wiki. Turning the feature on for the template namespace, we could delete another template and simplify existing templates by using Template:Lang. Moreover adding new languages to the template would require only two (instead of three) edits then.

Moreover: for the case we will install the translation extension (even in a test wiki), the transformation process would be much easier I guess.

To change the configuration, see
