BTW this page should be probably updated too. There is no info about Reply tool and New discussion tool.

Great spot, @Patriccck. Do you have any interest in updating that page? Please feel no obligation to say "yes." Since you noticed this, I thought it would be worthwhile to ask :)

@ppelberg That is the problem, I do not understand how works translateable pages at mediawikiwiki, therefore I noted it here.

As long as you don’t touch the <translate> tags, you’re unlikely to break how the English page appears. (Even if you do break it, it’s visible in the preview. And even if you happen to save it, revert always works.) After that, it’s the translation administrators’ task to ensure that translated pages won’t break—they have to push an extra button, before that nothing happens with the translations. Of course, I don’t want to force you do this, either, but there’s no reason not to be bold.

@Tacsipacsi Is it OK, now? The only icon is not here, I do not why (see original file).

@Patriccck Perfect, thanks for updating! Icon: that’s a normal <gallery> element (although it uses the {{#tag:gallery| syntax, but that’s basically the same), so it uses Commons files. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Betafeatures-icon-DiscussionTools-ltr.svg doesn’t exist indeed, and I couldn’t find this icon on Commons at all.
