Hi geocaching.com and all the other addicts,
I would very much like a feature that enables me to filter (e.g. with pocket queries) the caches according to the language(s) their description is written in. I understand that for the U.S. this is not really needed, but if you travel a bit in Europe, it's often frustrating, if you build a pocket query and half of the descriptions have no english translation. Of course, I can handle them as a mystery cache ;-) and work myself through a translation, but for having more fun with geocaching in not english speaking countries this would be a really nice feature.
Am I the only one feeling that way, any other suggestions and is there hope that anything like that will be possible in the near future?
THX a lot!

New cache attribute: description language(s)
in Website

I think an attribute "english description available / not available" would be sufficient and nice. Since anyone who publishes a cache on geocaching.com should be familiar with a little english, this seems to be not that unreasonable . In fact, for many caches in smaller countries an english translation is added, it would just be nice to have this as an attribute, so that you can use it as a filter e.g. with pocket queries...
(please, no principal discussions about "english language being dominant" etc.)
