Its purpose is to render a standard header text for a language category, along with an [[interwiki]] link to the relevant language article on the [[English Wikipedia]] wiki. Usage of this '''Template:Language Category''' will auto-include categories as a sub-category within [[:Category:Language]]. This [[Special:Templates|template]] should <u>not</u> be used anywhere else. | ||

Simply select (highlight) <code><nowiki>{{Language Category}}</nowiki></code> and copy (<tt>Ctrl+c</tt> on your keyboard), then paste at the <u>top</u> of the [[edit box]] of the required {{tag|language}} category. | |||
It will also be helpful to add a further one- or two-line brief explanation (two carriage returns after the end of the <tt><nowiki>{{Language Category}}</nowiki></tt> template code) about where, or which [[:Category:Countries|countries]] the specific language is used in. For an example of the [[:Category:Oromo|Oromo language category]], the following was added: | |||
<tt><nowiki>The '''Oromo language''' is an {{W|Afroasiatic languages|Afro-Asiatic language}}; spoken by the {{W|Oromo people}}, and the neighbouring peoples in {{tag|Ethiopia}} and {{tag|Kenya}}.</nowiki></tt> | |||
