Use this [[Special:Templates|template]] for generating an [[:Category:Infobox templates|infobox]] in the 'mother' or 'parent' [[article]] or [[Special:Categories|category]] for an <u>identical</u> series of [[What is a Wiki|wiki sites]] which are released in differing [[:Category:Wiki Language|wiki languages]]; such as [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]], [[:Category:Wiktionary|Wiktionary]], [[:Category:Uncyclopedia|Uncyclopedia]], [[Metapedia]], [[JurisPedia]], [[:Category:wikiHow|wikiHow]], [[Touhou Wiki]], [[WikiMANNia]], [[:Category:Encyclopaediae Pokémonis|Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]], etc; ie: for {{tag|Wiki Multilingual|multilingual}} versions of wiki sites, and those which may also use a {{tag|portal}} page. All infobox external URLs <u>must</u> start with <tt>http://</tt> or <tt>https://</tt>, whereas [[Oxford-Dict:prose|prose]] links in the description can also use any existing [[interwiki]] link for external sites, along with conventional 'internal' [[wikilink]]s.
Use this [[Special:Templates|template]] for generating an [[:Category:Infobox templates|infobox]] in the 'mother' or 'parent' [[article]] or [[Special:Categories|category]] for an <u>identical</u> series of <u>separate</u> [[What is a Wiki|wiki sites]] which are available in differing [[:Category:Wiki Language|wiki languages]]; such as [[:Category:Encyclopaediae Pokémonis|Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]], [[JurisPedia]], [[Metapedia]], [[:Category:openSUSE|openSUSE]], [[Touhou Wiki]], [[:Category:Uncyclopedia|Uncyclopedia]], [[:Category:wikiHow|wikiHow]], [[WikiMANNia]], [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]], [[:Category:Wiktionary|Wiktionary]] (and other projects from the [[:Category:Wikimedia Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]]), [[:Category:Wikitravel|Wikitravel]], etc.  Those separate wiki sites may be classified or named as a 'project' by their creator or [[owner]], and here on WikiIndex will be categorised within '{{tag|Wiki Multilingual}}'.
 
This infobox template should also be used on an article or category page for a wiki site {{tag|portal}} page; its URL typically (though not always) prefixed with 'www', such as <tt>www.Wikiversity.org</tt>.
 
All external URLs in an infobox field <u>must</u> start with <tt>http://</tt> or <tt>https://</tt>, whereas [[Cambridge-Dictionary:prose|prose]] links in the description can also use any existing [[interwiki]] link for external sites, along with conventional 'internal' [[wikilink]]s.
