You communicate in English really well, I know you speak German and
very likely you speak Dutch too. That is impresive.
Yes! Especially Dutch, that is impressive <g>

So I can get the joke, can you translate the translation back to
English?
"Coding standards" is translated as "Standards Codification" so the
author tell you how to write an standard, not how do you should write
your code...
Got it?
