Re: Topic Names in Wiki Translations

[Yoshihiro Totaka <fedoradesktop@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

For Japanese, it's not really meaningful to translate page name,since it 
will be generate garbled and really long URL. I guess other Asian 
languages would have the same problem.

As for LanguageDict, it is possible to translate links which appear in 
right side tool bar such as FedoraMain, and RecentlyUpdated. However it 
seems LanguageDict will not translate other links.
