Template:UserLanguageCategory

This user language template renders the appropriate page display in the primary or 'mother' category of a specific language which is spoken by the people who edit (or have previously edited) this WikiIndex wiki site. It creates a standardised display, with uniform formatting, and appropriately targeted links; internal wikilinks here on WikiIndex, and external links by way of interwiki to the English Wikipedia (En.Wp). These specific categories are all part of category: Wiki people by language. This particular template has two (2) input requirements – immediately after {{UserLanguageCategory| . . .: both are compulsory; the second default 'no' is acceptable, but the native translation is ideally preferred.

Input requirements

• 1st — the two- or three- letter ISO 639 language code, (plus any sub-language letters, eg: en-gb, pt-br, zh-hk, zh-tw, etc); see template:Language and template:Language names;
• 2nd — native translation of 'The people in this category here on WikiIndex listed below speak (language)'; if no is entered, only the description in English will be displayed.

Usage

{{UserLanguageCategory|ISO 639 code|native language translation}}
