This template replaces the many {{<xx> icon}} templates with a single parameterized template as a result of this TfD; cf.:

{{de icon}}Template:De icon
{{in lang|de}}(in German)

Usage

The template accepts one or more positional language-code parameters (<xx>) plus several named parameters:

{{in lang|<code>|<code2>|...|link=|cap=}}

Parameters

  • <code> – required where <code> is a valid ISO-639 language code or a valid IETF language tag; more than one language code supported:
    • {{in lang|cs|en|de|fr|es|it|pl|ru|ja|zh}}
      • (in Czech, English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Russian, Japanese, and Chinese)
  • link – accepts the single value yes; creates link to language article
    • {{in lang|nv|link=yes}}<span class="languageicon">(in [[Navajo language|Navajo]])</span>(in Navajo)
  • cap – accepts the single value yes; capitalizes first letter in the rendering:
    • {{in lang|pt-BR|cap=yes}}(In Portuguese)

Categories

Transclusions in mainspace articles will add the article to the appropriate subcategory of Category:Articles with non-English-language sources. There are two forms of these subcategories:

Category:Articles with <language name>-language sources (<code>) – for individual languages[1] and for macrolanguages[2]
Category:Articles with <collective name> languages-collective sources (<code>) – for language collectives[3]

where <language name> and <collective name> is the name used in the template's rendering and <code> is the ISO 639 code or IETF language tag. These categories differ from the categories added by the {{<xx> icon}} templates because not all uses of this template will be related to external links.
