Template:Language table

Revision as of 03:44, 19 February 2018 by Jessietail (talk | contribs)

This template lists all official translations of the names of products, works, objects, locations, or characters across different regions and in different languages.

Usage instructions

To use this template, add the shortcut tag {{Langtable}} (avoid using the full {{Language table}}) to an article, under its own section. Here is an example of how it should look:

==Names in other languages==
{{Langtable
|xx=name
|xx=name
|xx=name}}

Where xx is an ISO code, and name is the subject's name in that language.

For subjects with a single dedicate article, this template should be placed near the end of the page, prior to any existing notes, references, and/or external links sections, but after all other sections. If the language table is for a certain section in an article, such as on a page listing subjects too minor to have their own articles, it should come at the very end of the section, with its own section being one level lower than the subject's main section.

List of language codes

This template uses standard ISO codes. The following table contains a list of the currently-usable codes:

footnote

Further division of languages with significantly different translations for different regions speaking the same language (eg. the different names between American and British releases of some products, as well as any possible differences between European and American versions of other languages) may be desired.
