==Usage==
{|style=float:right
<nowiki>{{language|code|level}}</nowiki>
!{{Cambridge-Dictionary|babel}} examples below
*Code[[#Find code|*]] = the two/three code acronym for the language
*Level = A number/letter how well the language is spoken:
**0 - not able to speak
**1 - basic
**2 - intermediate
**3 - advanced
**4 - near native
**5 - professional
**N - native
 
==Find code==
See [[Wikipedia: List of ISO 639-1 codes]], and look at the column saying '''"639-1"'''. If your language isn't there, see [[Wikipedia: List of ISO 639-2 codes]], and look at the '''Alpha-3''' column. If it still isn't there, look at [[wp:List of ISO 639-3 codes|the ISO 639-3 codes list]] and click a letter. If it isn't there yet, write the language's name in English. You may also ask someone.
==Examples==

==Categorization==
;Some examples are shown on the right
All main language categories can be found at Category:<tt>Language</tt>Speakers, and all sub categories can be found at Category:<tt>Language</tt>Speakers_(<tt>#</tt>), where <tt>Language</tt> is the name of a language, and <tt>#</tt> is a number between 0&ndash;5 or an N.</noinclude>
:''Note:'' [[red link]]s indicate we have no {{tag|Wiki people by language|person}} here on this WikiIndex wiki site who speaks that {{tag|language}} at that level.
 
This {{tag|User language templates|user language template}} renders the appropriate specific '''{{tag|language}}''' '{{Cambridge-Dictionary|babel}}' user-box (examples shown right); as used on personal individual '''[[user page]]s''' of those [[:Category:Wiki people|people]] who identify their {{tag|Wiki people by language|spoken language(s)}}, along with any 'parent' [[Special:Categories|category]] and its associated sub-categories of [[:category: Wiki people by language]].
 
This [[Special:Templates|template]] has <u>two</u> (2) compulsory input requirements; immediately after <code>{{Language| . . .</code>.
*'''1st''' — ''ISO&nbsp;639 code'' – the {{Wp|List of ISO 639-1 codes|two}}- or {{Wp|List of ISO 639-3 codes|three}}- letter {{Wp|ISO 639}} language code;
*'''2nd''' — ''level'' – 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or N (for 'native').
 
===Usage===
To use a {{Cambridge-Dictionary|babel}} box on your own [[user page]], highlight the following code, copy (<kbd>Ctrl-c</kbd> on your Windows keyboard, or <kbd>⌘-c</kbd> on a Macintosh keyboard), paste (<kbd>Ctrl-v</kbd> or <kbd>⌘-v</kbd>) it in the [[edit box]] of your user page, then amend the two '''''bold-italics''''' to the required information, before saving (<kbd>Ctrl-s</kbd> or <kbd>⌘-s</kbd>) your [[edit]].
 
<code><nowiki>{{Language|</nowiki>'''''<nowiki>ISO 639 code</nowiki>'''''|level='''''<nowiki>?</nowiki>'''''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code><br>
Where . . .
*<tt>'''''[[#Find code|ISO&nbsp;639 code]]'''''</tt> — the {{Wp|List of ISO 639-1 codes|two}}- or {{Wp|List of ISO 639-3 codes|three}}- letter language code, and;
*<tt>level='''''?'''''</tt> — a <u>letter</u> ''or'' <u>number</u> indicating how well, or proficiency and competency the language is spoken (and / or understood):
**'''N''' — native
**'''5''' — professional
**'''4''' — near native
**'''3''' — advanced
**'''2''' — intermediate
**'''1''' — basic
**'''0''' — not able to speak
 
===Find code===
The [[English Wikipedia]] has articles on the {{Wp|ISO 639}} language codes.  To find the specific code for a language, see the {{Wp|List of ISO 639-1 codes#Partial ISO 639 table|list of ISO&nbsp;639-1 codes}}; and in the table of languages, look at the column saying '''639-1'''.  If the language you seek is not there, see {{Wp|list of ISO 639-2 codes}}, and look at the '''Alpha-3''' column.  If it still is not there, look at {{Wp|List of ISO 639-3 codes|the ISO&nbsp;639-3 codes list}}, and click a letter.  Finally, if it is not there yet, write the name of the required language in English.  You may also ask someone, or look for fellow [[user]]s on any of the language versions of [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]].  Finally, [[template: Wikipedia]] has many examples of ISO&nbsp;639 language codes.

===Categorisation===
All main language [[Special:Categories|categories]] for [[:Category:Wiki people|wiki people]] can be found at [[:category: Wiki people by language]].  All sub-categories can be found at <code>Category:<mark>Language</mark> speakers (<mark>#</mark>)</code>, where <tt><mark>Language</mark></tt> is the <u>anglicised</u> name of a user language, and <tt><mark>#</mark></tt> is a number between 0-to-5 or an N which defines their proficiency level.
