Template:Multilingual main boilerplate

This is the boilerplate for template: MultilingualMain; the infobox with the pink border. Use this template for generating an infobox in the 'mother' or 'parent' article or category for an identical series of wiki sites which are released in differing wiki languages; such as Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Uncyclopedia, Metapedia, JurisPedia, wikiHow, Touhou Wiki, WikiMANNia, Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis, etc; ie: for multilingual versions of wiki sites, and those which may also use a portal page. All infobox external URLs must start with http:// or https://, whereas prose links in the description can also use any existing interwiki link for external sites, along with conventional 'internal' wikilinks.
