This is awfully silly. :)<br />
On top of the fact that [[User:Jack Phoenix/extension stuff|I'm no big fan of 
descriptionmsg stuff]], the description used here is more like a placeholder 
rather than anything worth translating. If you can come up with a better, more 
useful description, by all means change the text! I'm just rather convinced 
that it's not worth anyone's time to translate "Nimbus skin for MediaWiki" into 
different languages, as it doesn't really tell much; it tells that it's a 
MediaWiki skin, its name is Nimbus and...that's it.

[[Extension:MWSearch]] (which is used on Wikimedia sites) has 
[http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/MWSearch/MWSearch.i18n.php?view=markup
 an equally useful description message], which has been translated into various 
languages, though it seems that some translations, such as Bavarian (Boarisch; 
language code <code>bar</code>) and German (Deutsch; language code 
<code>de</code>) are more useful than the English source text.
