If we did indicate actual translations with this attribute, and unrelated lyrics were just "version" or "based on" or whatever, I'd certainly be quite happier myself. Chris says we wouldn't always be able to tell - well "if in doubt, don't claim it's a translation" sounds reasonable and workable to me, dunno about others. -- Nicolás Tamargo de Eguren
