Description

Authority control template is used to connect a person with reference catalogs (for authors, athletes, etc.). This is a common template available in more than one hundred wikis that is useful to assess the notability of the subject of the article.

Currently Content translation does not show the Authority control template in the source article. This requires users to realize that the template exist in the source article, and copy it later as a follow-up edit. Guiven thatthe parameters are expected to be easy to map, automating the adaptation can be useful.

This was suggested by a translator in this comment.
