Template documentation
| Notice | This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see COinS in Wikipedia. |
This template is used to indicate to readers that an external link is in a foreign language.
It should generally be placed after the external link, although this is not set in stone. English is the default language, and does not need to be noted using this template, unless there is a reason the reader would assume the link to be in a foreign language (e.g. a foreign title).
For citations, the |language= parameter of the various citation templates ({{cite web}}, {{cite news}}, {{cite journal}}, etc.) should be used instead.
Usage
{{link language|<language code>}}
Example
Template:Tld produces: (French)
