It's something I've been thinking about for quite some time. What about a section [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Larvesta_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#In_other_languages "In other languages"] like on Bulbapedia, with some notes explaining the translation(s) (sometimes they aren't even consistent from one media to the other...)? I assume we could have at least one or two languages covered. Here's an example for the [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Template:Other_languages main template], and the one for displaying the meaning of words is [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Template:Tt here]. We could choose to display the template in a collapsible way, if it looks awkward. The template may be added to point out whether a name or a title is a translation, an anglicism, the same term as in English, a completely different term, etc. We don't have to add it on every single article, and have all languages covered, I don't consider that as an indispensable project.
