Description

There are mainly two types of old redundant overrides since T229992 is done:

Transclude the locally created fallback: {{MediaWiki:message-key/lang-code|1={{{1}}} }} (/lang-code and params part are optional)
Repeat the exactly same message as the locally created fallback

We may want to clean up these messes for interface admins and avoid checking manually from Special:AllMessages.
