Event Timeline

It seems needed Module is missing in the target wiki. In second image, it seems Yandex tried to (machine) translate the template, so different error.

Pginer-WMF subscribed.

In the example, the parameters are transferred to the equivalent template. The template in the target wiki needs different information and the developers of the template decided to communicate the error in this way. It is up to the user to adjust or remove the template. There is not much to do from the Content Translation side.
