Really?  I though i18n, l10n, and the like are established terminology
nowadays.  For example:

  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/intl/international-support

There's also "multilingual" and m17n, but I thought it was less known.
However, maybe we should consider something like "Multilingual Help"?
