This is the boilerplate for template:MultilingualMain. Use this template for generating an infobox in the 'mother' or 'parent' article or category for an identical series of wikis which are released in differing wiki languages; such as Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Uncyclopedia, Metapedia, JurisPedia, wikiHow, Touhou Wiki, WikiMANNia, Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis, etc; ie: for multilingual versions of wiki sites, and those which may also use a portal page.

{{MultilingualMain <!--see 'Template:MultilingualMain' for full detail-->
|name        = WikiPortalName –<br><small>''tagline''</small><!--if portal name differs from article name; otherwise, DELETE this field-->
|URL         = WikiPortalURL <!--start with http:// or https:// - eg: https://www.WikiPortalURL.org-->
|logo        = [[File:NoLogo.png|alt=Description of logo image]] <!--you may upload and wikilink, or hotlink to a URL-->
|wide logo   = <!--insert 'y' when the logo is too wide AND / OR the title is too long-->
|wikinode URL= No <!--https://www.WikiPortalURL/WikiNode, if none, use 'No'-->
|about URL   = No <!--https://www.WikiPortalURL/PORTALNAMESPACE:About, if none, use 'No'-->
|engine      = YourWikiEngine <!--software which the wikis run on, eg: Wikia, MediaWiki; see Category:Wiki Engine-->
|maintopic   = YourWikiTopic <!--main primary topic of the project; eg: Encyclopaedia, Travel guide, How to, Parody, Law, etc-->
|license     = WikiPortalLicense <!--optional, see Category:Wiki License, if NO license, 'NoLicense'-->
}}<!--{{Language versions|}}--><!--list alphabetically by two-digit language prefix-->

[[Category:Portal]]<!--ONLY if URL is a portal; see www.Wikipedia.org for example-->
[[Category:FoundedIn20xx]]<!--https://www.WikiPortalURL/index.php?title=Special:AncientPages-->

Highlight the text above in the blue/grey 'boilerplate', select copy (Ctrl-c on your keyboard), and paste (Ctrl-v) it at the top of the edit box in the relevant wiki portal article or category, then amend the fields to the right of the = sign with the requested information. 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 (alt+s).
