This template produces an in-line link to the SIL page documenting the ISO639-3 code of a language. It is mostly used in tables and footnotes to reference the ISO code or name. To refenence an edition of Ethnologue, {{Ethnologue18}} (or another edition) should be used.

Usage

The first parameter links to SIL through an ISO 639-3 code. For example,

{{ethnolink|aap}} = aap.

If a second parameter is used, it will display instead of the ISO code. For example,

{{ethnolink|aap|Arára}} = Arára.

Both formats link to the ISO code page for Arára at SIL.


If a WP article might be created soon, or it's a good idea to have the page show up under 'what links here', a red link can be left in by linking inside the template. For example,

{{ethnolink|aap|[[Arára language|Arára]]}}

produces:

Arára.

  • {{Ethnologue18}} (or any other edition from the 14th on), which is more convenient for the reference section.
  • [[ISO639-3:(code)]], which is used for links to the external ISO code page
