An on-going translation turned into Read-Only (!?)

Source page EN Histology

Target page SL SmozBleda/Histologija

Whatever I do (since few days), like destroying the target copy, changing to a different target name, I am stuck: the target segments are grayed out and inaccessible for writing. I can kick off a new, not-yet-translated segment, but then I get one more read-only (sucky) translation.

Please advise!

[edit] I am essentially stuck with the useless work done so far, hanging on the combination of a) my Handle, b) source page used and c) target language.

From my experience of testing Content Translation, I learned that this is probably because of missing templatedata in templates that have been introduced in the article. Check that all the templates in the article have templatedata. It might fix it.

Dead on, Andrej

There's a help template used pretty much at the beginning of the English article. Removikng it (i.e. copyikng the original article and editing the suspect out of it) makes the problem go away.

I guess it is worth entering this as a bug... Even if the missing template is a serious matter, it should not freeze the translation.

Kudos for your help;)
