Does anyone know of an online resource for translations of common software menu options, messages, etc. into other languages?

When testing with .. /xsl/sample rendering.xslt ..which is a simple rendering provided out of the box by Sitecore, I notice that, in the loop that outputs the item's children, all children are included, regardless of whether those items have a version in the current language.
