| This is a documentation subpage for Template:En. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| This template is only for use in File namespace, when moving files between here and Commons. |
Usage
This template was imported from commons:Template:en to handle language issues that English Wikipedia does not face. It is used on files from Commons or files preparing to be moved to Commons.
Examples
- {{en|English translation}} produces Transclusion error: {{En}} is only for use in File namespace. Use {{lang-en}} or {{in lang|en}} instead.
- {{en|1=English translation with links}} produces Transclusion error: {{En}} is only for use in File namespace. Use {{lang-en}} or {{in lang|en}} instead.
- {{en}} produces Transclusion error: {{En}} is only for use in File namespace. Use {{lang-en}} or {{in lang|en}} instead. (incorrect usage)
Transclusion error
If this template is used outside of File: namespace, it produces the following error:
Transclusion error: {{En}} is only for use in File namespace. Use {{lang-en}} or {{en icon}} instead.
To fix this error, uses of {{en}} without parameters should usually be replaced by {{en icon}} (or just the language name) and uses with a parameter by {{lang-en}}. In a cite, to fix |language={{en}} simply remove the curly braces to leave |language=en.
