Yeah, the Translate extension fundamentally doesn't work with VisualEditor in its current form, as I understand it. Much sadness.

I assume you mean translate tags as shown in the screenshot, because "translate templates" don't exist.

Jdforrester-WMF added a comment.Oct 8 2014, 11:48 PM

No, it means the ghastly mess that is {{TNTNTNTNTTNT}} :-)

(In reply to James Forrester from comment #4)

No, it means the ghastly mess that is {{TNTNTNTNTTNT}} :-)

The screnshot seems to be about this excerpt:

<translate>
<!--T:21-->
More details at {{ll|Social media|Social media}}.
</translate>

{{ll}} only creates a link to Special:MyLanguage (which is not even in Translate now). (In the Translate docs we recommend to use Special:MyLanguage directly, but what can you do.)
So the summary currently mentions the only thing which is not in the screenshot. :)

As described, this doesn't happen any more. VE + Translate still sucks, but that isn't not this ticket.
