This is the boilerplate for template:MultilingualMain. Use this template for generating an infobox in the 'mother' article or category for an identical series of wikis which are released in differing wiki languages – such as Wikipedia, Wikitravel, Metapedia, JurisPedia, etc – ie: a portal for multilingual versions.

{{MultilingualMain <!--see 'Template:MultilingualMain' for full detail-->
|name        = YourWikiName –<br><small>''tagline''</small><!--if wiki name differs from article name; otherwise, DELETE this field-->
|URL         = YourWikiHttp <!--start with http:// or https:// - eg: https://www.WikiPortalURL.org-->
|logo        = [[File:NoLogo.png|alt=]] <!--you may upload and wikilink, or hotlink to a URL-->
|wikinode URL= No <!--https://www.WikiPortalURL/WikiNode - if none, use 'No'-->
|about URL   = No <!--https://www.WikiPortalURL/PORTALNAMESPACE:About - if none, use 'No'-->
|engine      = YourWikiEngine <!--software which the wikis run on, eg: Wikia, MediaWiki; see Category:Wiki Engine-->
|maintopic   = YourWikiTopic <!--main primary topic; other sub-topics are added as tags within prose below-->
|license     = YourWiki'sLicense <!--optional, see Category:Wiki License, if NO license, 'NoLicense'-->
}}<!--{{Language versions|}}--><!--list alphabetically by two-digit language prefix-->

[[Category:Portal]]<!--ONLY if URL is a portal; see www.Wikipedia.org for example-->
[[Category:FoundedIn20xx]]<!--https://www.WikiPortalURL/index.php?title=Special:AncientPages-->

Copy the text above in the blue 'boilerplate' and paste it at the top of the edit box in the relevant category or article, then amend the fields to the right of the = sign. Do not forget to click on the 'Show preview' button (or alt-p on your keyboard) to verify your edited detail is correct before saving.
