PRoblems with the translation of some pages (and template redirects)

I'm trying to translate some Wiki pages into Italian.
The annoying thing of this wiki is that many components / planets / technologies are linked and displayed with the relative word and the suffix /it (for example Kerbin/it)
Most of these problems I solve with the link, adding to the linked page the link with the Italian word

Example:

[[Electricity/it|Elettricità]]

 

Another problem is the title of the page that is always displayed with the suffix! So KErbin translated into Italian will be "Kerbin/it". To this unfortunately I have not found solutions (and I do not know if there are). I hope in your advices

 

Moreover I saw that there are many Dict templates, so there is already a dictionary of those words (for example parts) and inserting the word in English and calling the DICT template, it is translated automatically.

In fact, yesterday I tried to translate the page KerbNet. In this page there is a template of a table where are listed all the parts related to Kerbnet. In this table all the parts are always displayed in English so it was "annoying" (or let's say not very accurate) to see the original names in English searching them in the game with other language (especially for parts for example without the siglas)
So I used the

{{if lang}} 

function with

{{Dict/part name|xxxx}}

E.g.

[[M4435 Narrow-Band Scanner{{if lang}}|{{Dict/part name|M4435 Narrow-Band Scanner}}]]

In the above case Wikipedia should directly display in the name taking it from the dictionary and pull out the translated name that should be: Scanner a banda stretta M4435

As soon as it was modified it worked, but this morning I reopen this page (italian version) and I see that it doesn't work anymore. Do you have any advice?
