In this case there is no reason to forbid translation of Spanish page. But there should be more complex metadata attached saying that this is not primary version of page and that English original is available somewhere else. But this would be different feature and hence separate bug should be opened. -- Configure bugmail: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
