Then I think you have to ask to switch from editor to editor and admin (extended rights for translation management)
I already mentioned this many times already!

Last time I did just here 3 days before.

Is there really a need for a page: https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/index.p ... _NewSketch? There exists already https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Sketcher_NewSketch

Both have nearly the same content. The dialogs from the different workbenches differ somewhat, but this can easier be handled in one page. It it less work for translators.
I know, that then the tip-help does actually not work. But this should then be changed in the source code.

Any opinions?

I would like to see it on one page, however it might not be easy to get it clear:
- When called from PDN a body is created and set active if none exists
- There are more parameters to be set (which I never understood and never investigated further)
- The selection of the attachment plane takes place in 3D view

The last point could be adapted in the source code as well, but sure not before 0.18.
A Sketcher Lecture with in-depth information is available in English, auf Deutsch, en français, en español.
