Subject: i18n breaks on fallback if it's also a L10n
Original description:
i18n breaks for some cases if translations are fetched by fallback if there is no entry for a language code in a dictionary and the fallback is also a localisation. e.g. we have a language code 'xx' missing in the msg dict. The message falls back to the 'en' entry. If the en message isn't just a translation but a localisation this will not be valid on xx-wiki. Samples:

http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Pywikipedia:Redirect-remove-loop/en
http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Pywikipedia:Redirect-remove-broken/en

I'll remove L10n there.

20:31 < xquit> Amir1: There is a difference between L10N and i18n. Normaly
               messages from twn are interpreted as i18n which may have
               fallback to another site. But there are some messages especially
               on en-wiki ans some others which are L10N and they must not have
               fallbacks.


Examples are 'translations' which consist of templates -- e.g. if a site doesn't have a template for 'quick deletion', it shouldn't use enwiki's 'quick deletion' template instead.
