@matmarex Other Observations:
hu.wiki:

  • hu.wiki does not have Show metadata about each discussion and enable a new page layout explicitly listed under Discussion Tools

I’ve updated the translation yesterday, should be available next week. (If it’s very important, it could in theory be backported, but I’ve never seen translations being backported.)

It’s only Google Translate, nothing’s wrong with DiscussionTools. See wikt:test#Hungarian.

Yes, both of these look as expected to me. Thank you both for checking :)

For a moment I was worried that Google Translate was translating the text that you were writing, which would be bad (at best that just messes up your text, since you're probably not writing in Hungarian while using translation from Hungarian; at worst it might cause the editor to stop working), and which has happened in the past with other translation plugins: T267747: VisualEditor replaces templates with code, adds strange font tags. But it looks like the text you typed was actually saved correctly (see e.g. this diff), and it's just getting translated when shown, which seems normal.
