Hi, the initial concern was about a page on the wiki in french that was older than the english one, and with significant differences in a list of tags (still landuse=basin rather than the "new" natural=water), the change on the english page was made more than 1 year ago ! the "translate" extension can help to detect such kind of problem, even if it is perhaps not the best ...
I think that what we really need is a tool to "link" parts a translated page to the same part of the original page, so that when someone make changes on the original page a message is displayed on the translated page to alert on the possible de-synchronization of the content ...
