About redirects and renamings

Hello! You moved pade Inc to Inc and Dec and made redirect from Dec. Please be more careful when do renamings and redirects. You need remember three things when going to do things like these.
That three things are:

  • Templates
  • Languages
  • Categories

Try click on this links and see language bar and categories:

Try click English, see language bar and categories again and try return to Russian via language bar.

I think that better is to return all as it was before. Link to page Inc and Dec may be added to "See also" of English version of Inc and Dec.

Err, I don't quite understand your problem. Yes, you can navigate from the Russian to English page covering the same topic. The other way around (navigating from the English to the Russian page) does not work, since there's no page Inc and Dec/ru (yet). So?
You wanna tell me that once created structures are set in stone, or what? No, that's definitely not the case. You do agree with me, that duplicate contents are bad, don't you? Especially such things as inc and dec that are implemented by the same compiler code.
In general, the whole wiki – its multi-language “support” – is poorly maintained. The whole thing with (language bar) templates is/was an approach from 2005, but MediaWiki has evolved since and does have (with proper extensions/configuration enabled) sophisticated multi-language support. If we only were using it, the issue would, well, not disappear, but shift to other areas.
