Fay has been through all the templates and made a list of issues:

Oh! Is this the list you referred too in another post?

It would be a big help if Fay has already identified which templates
require updating with respect to tagging elements with the language
attribute.

If you could let me have a list of the pages that need their xwd forms
editing it would save me a load of time having to go through all of the
pages.

Kind regards

Johnathan
