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.
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. Do not forget to click on the 'Show preview' button (or alt-p on your keyboard) to verify your edited detail is correct before saving.
See also: template:Language versions, which is used to generate a textual navigation banner with wikilinks to all sub-language versions; and template:Wiki which is used to generate the standard wiki article infobox.
