Usage

This template tags pieces of text with the appropriate language code and allows for the implementation of Web Fonts.

This template is a <span> template.
{{lang block}} is the <div> version of this template.

{{lang|language|text}}

{{lang
 | language  = 
 | text      = 
 | direction = 
 | font      = 
 | style     =
 | class     =
 | attr      =
 | inline    =
}}

Parameters

• language: (Also lang or the first unnamed parameter) The code for the language being displayed, using ISO 639. This can be two or three letters depending on the specificity of the language you are declaring. For example "French" is fr is, but "Old French" is fro.
• text: (Also the second unnamed parameter) The text to be displayed.
• direction: (Also dir) Text direction, can be ltr (left-to-right) or rtl (right-to-left). Left-to-right is standard; right-to-left is used for languages such as Arabic and Hebrew. If this is not set, the template will attempt to select the correct text direction based on the language parameter.
• font: Uses the webfont extension. See Web Fonts below.
• style: The code for other optional CSS style being applied, such as font-feature-setting: 'locl'; for localized glyph(s).
• class: Any HTML classes to apply, such as class="plainlinks".
• attr: The code for other optional HTML attributes being applied

Internal parameters

This parameter is for internal use only, to distiguish between {{lang}} and {{lang block}}.
It shall not be used directly.

• inline: The type of template:
  • inline=yes (default) will provide an inline template (<span> ... </span>); this is used internally in {{lang}}.
  • inline=no (or != yes) will provide a block template (<div> ... </div>); this is used internally in {{lang block}}.

This parameter can be used by /s templates to not close the tag, but instead leave it open, e.g. for crossing a page break.

• noclose: The type of template:
  • noclose=yes (default) leave the tag open
  • Any other value: close the tag as normal

Examples

Language attribute

As stated under parameters, the language should be set with an ISO 639 language code.

However, if necessary, this can be specified even further with an ISO 15924 script code and/or an ISO 3166-1 country code. Script codes can be used if the text is in a script other than that associated with the language. Country codes can be used to specify the text's country of origin.

Use	Text	Attribute	Code	Notes

Web Fonts

This template makes use of the Universal Language Selector extension installed on this project. This extension allows for the proper display of languages where the standard font is either unavailable or of insufficient quality.

The language parameter will determine which font is used. In some cases, multiple fonts are available; the preferred font can be selected with the font parameter. If the font parameter is not used, the default font for that language will be selected. Currently no support for mobile devices.

Language tagging

Texts on Wikisource should be tagged to specify the language in a machine readable format. All pages on English Wikisource are automatically tagged as "English". Any piece of text that is not in English should be tagged as such with this template or one of its derivatives.

Language tagging on Meta-Wiki explains the best practice of language tagging.

Blocks split across pages

For blocks in a different language split across multiple pages, use {{lang block/s}} to begin the block and {{lang block/e}} to end it. {{lang block/s}} takes the same parameters as {{lang}} except for |inline=, which is fixed as "no".
