The English pages could be changed a little to make translations
easier,
e.g. by moving URLs into separate files. Instead of writing:
Go [here](http://example.org) for this or that.
we'd write:
Go [here][foo] for this or that.
This is nice in theory, but in practice it has practically never been
used in the old web. After all, even for languages like Korean it was
pretty easy to open the file and do a search/replace.
It also starts making the system complex where for cron you want the
database being updated regenerate files using the link, which starts
going into dependency hell and rebuilding your own make/scons/etc.
Unless you don't want to play nice and just regenerate everything
every time, though that breaks things like http caches and other stuff.
Don't bother with that unless it really is a priority for somebody.
