Sure, that works too (I was aiming at the #tag syntax, which I believe is also fairly easy parsed). Whether [[xx:Words here]] or {{#en:Words here}}. The former might confuse the few users that check the Diff (instead of editing the page with the form) as I asume the Tag:-page would not actually have langlinks. -- Krinkle _______________________________________________ Commons-l mailing list Commons-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/commons-l
