What about having one page with all descriptions to translate whose fragments would be trascluded into MediaWiki: messages?

What about having one page with all descriptions to translate whose fragments would be trascluded into MediaWiki: messages?

Is that possible? Would be great.

Yes, every translated page creates pages in Translation: namespace, each has its number and language. If the fragment exists in my language, show it, else show the English one.

Then, all existing translations have to be moved to their new places.
