ਫਰਮਾ:In lang/doc

Template:In lang is used to denote that a text source is written in a specific language.

For citations using a citation template ({{cite web}}, {{cite news}}, {{cite journal}}, etc.), that template's |language= parameter should be used instead.

To note a span of text in a different language, {{lang}} or one of the {{lang-x}} templates ({{lang-fr}}, {{lang-ast}}, etc.) should be used instead.

Usage

Typical use of this template is inside <ref>...</ref> tags where the reference is not templated and the referenced source is non-English:

<ref>[https://www.example.com "Non English Journal Article"]. ''Non-English Journal''. '''12'''(3): 231–241 {{in lang|xx}}</ref>

Also finds use in External links sections to mark non-English link-targets:

[https://www.example.com Non English external link] {{in lang|xx}}

This template does not markup non-English text. For that, use {{lang}} or an appropriate {{lang-??}} template.

Categories

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

Category:Articles with <language name>-language sources (<tag>) – for individual languages and for macrolanguages

Category:Articles with sources in <collective name> languages (<tag>) – for language collectives

where <language name> and <collective name> is the name used in the template's rendering and <tag> is the ISO 639 tag or IETF language tag.
