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, etc – ie: a portal for multilingual versions.

{{MultilingualMain
|name        = YourWikiName<!--use if wiki name is different from article name; otherwise, DELETE this field-->
|URL         = YourWikiHttp <!--start with http:// - eg: http://www.YourWikiURL.org-->
|logo        = [[File:NoLogo.png|alt=]] <!--you may upload and wikilink, or hotlink to a URL-->
|wikinode URL= No <!--http://YourWikiURL.org/wiki/WikiNode - If none, use 'No'-->
|about URL   = No <!--http://YourWikiURL.org/wiki/PORTALNAMESPACE:About - If none, use 'No'-->
|engine      = YourWikiEngine <!--the software which the wiki runs on, eg: MediaWiki, see Category:Wiki Engine-->
|maintopic   = YourWikiTopic <!--main primary topic. Other sub-topics are added as tags within the prose below-->
|license     = YourWiki'sLicense <!--optional, see Category:Wiki License, if NO license, 'NoLicense'-->
}}<!--{{Language versions|}}-->

[[Category:FoundedIn20xx]]<!--http://YourWikiURL.org/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. Don't forget to click on the 'Show preview' button (or alt-p on your keyboard) to verify your edited detail is correct before saving.
