The section
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikidata/Notes/Inclusion_syntax#Accessing_Data_Fields_in_a_Template
says "{{{data}}}...would evaluate to the label and description of the
item... in the **page's content** language". But it should be noted
that on some it will be necessary to allow a different language to be
used (e.g. on ptwiki some data is written in Portuguese from Brazil
and other is in Portuguese from Portugal, Angola, and so on). So it
would be necessary to provide a way to specify the appropriate
language.

Another thing: will we be able to translate the name "data" (e.g. to
"dados") which appear on "{{#data-value:" "{{{data.color}}}",
"data_item", "data_param" etc..?
In Portuguese and Spanish there is the word "data" with the meaning of
the english word "date":
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/data#Portuguese
It could be confusing not being able to translate this...

Would it be possible to create a link having "action=edit" as text? E.g.:
{{#data-link:data|action=edit|action=edit}}
or
{{#data-link:data|action=edit|action{{=}}edit}}
?

Best regards,
Helder
