Language specific guidelines

I would prefer to move any language specific stuff to seperate pages, which will remove a bit of clutter from some of the regular guidelines, and makes it easier for someone who just starts working in a particular language to see clearly in what areas that language differs from our main guidelines.

  1. Dutch
    1. Capitalization standard
    2. Sortname
    3. anything else?
  2. German
    1. Capitalization standard
    2. Sortname
    3. ...
  3. French
    1. ...
    2. ...
    3. 【stuff like Credit_Translations/French could probably go in the language sections too】
