English Template This sub-template doesn't display properly when not included. Please see Template:Languages for the complete version. Usage This template is designed to simplify Template:Languages, by allowing a simpler syntax for adding new languages. Each language is included by calling this template with the following parameters: Language code (e.g. fr) (optional) Page name - if not supplied the page is automatically worked out based on where the language template is included. This template should not be used anywhere except in the Languages template. </noinclude> | Translate this article...

Syntax

{{Languages|PageName}}

• PageName (optional) - the name of the page to display language links for. If omitted then the English version of the current page is used. This parameter can normally be omitted, as it is only required if you want to link to a page other than the one you place the template on, which is very uncommon. If this parameter is used on a sub-page make sure you supply the root name, not the full page name (e.g. on User Manual 2.3/es you would need to use {{Languages|User Manual 2.3}} and not {{Languages|User Manual 2.3/es}}).

Usage

The template should only be placed on pages that exist in more than one language, and it should be placed in the same location on each translation of the page.

The English version of a page is always the main version, with all other languages as sub-pages, named using the appropriate language code (see below).

For example, on the Main Page you would include the text {{Languages}}, both on Main Page itself, and on each of its language sub-pages. The template automatically creates links to any language sub-pages that exist, e.g. Main Page/ja, Main Page/fr, and ignores non-existant languages.

See Starting Guide for Wiki translators for further details about translating articles.

Supported languages

This shows you the name of each language's sub-page (using Main Page as an example). Other languages may be added easily as necessary. Please use the appropriate as used on Wikipedia when adding a new language. Please do not add languages for which no pages exist yet, as this will increase the time needed to include the template without adding any benefit (languages are only displayed to the user when the relevant page exists).

Page Name	Language
Main Page	English
Main Page/id	Indonesia
