Module:Language/doc
This is the documentation page for Module:Language
Template:Module rating Template:Language templates Template:Lua
This module is used by Template:Tlx and Template:Tlx. It is inspired by the templates [[wikt:Template:m|Template:((mTemplate:))]] and [[wikt:Template:l|Template:((lTemplate:))]] and their associated modules on Wiktionary. It has a Wiktionary link function that links to the correct section of the Wiktionary entry, and applies correct language formatting and italics. The language-tagging function does most of what Template:T does, except that italics can't be customized and categories aren't added.
The module uses Module:Language/data to retrieve the language name for a language code, and to perform the necessary entry-name replacements (for instance, removing macrons from Latin entry names). These are unfortunately not automatically retrieved from Wiktionary's language data modules. For language codes that do not have a name
value in this module, the language name is fetched with mw.language.fetchLanguage
. When mw.language.fetchLanguage
does not fetch the correct language name (or any language name at all), please add it to Module:language/data, and similarly when the correct entry name is not generated, please add the entry name replacements to the module.
