This template is used to show a template in the user's interface language.
How to convert a template
[ਸੋਧੋ]Before you apply this template, first you have to prepare the template.
Pick a template
[ਸੋਧੋ]—See for example Template:Cc-by-1.0 before changes.
First you have to pick a template to autotranslate.
In this documentation, we will name our "selected template" as: Template:Template name
- See Commons:Template:i18n for a list of templates needing translation or translated.
Create a layout template
[ਸੋਧੋ]You must create a layout template, named Template:Template name/layout, to contain the layout of all language versions of the template. The easiest way to do this is to copy a layout template of a similar template.
This template should not add any categories when transcluded.
Convert existing language versions
[ਸੋਧੋ]All versions must be subpages of Template:Template name, and his name must use the appropriate prefix, as used on Wikipedia when adding a new language –ISO 639 language code–. For example, Spanish subpage must be named Template:Template name/es
Usually the English language link to the main template –Template:Template name–. That is incorrect, point it to the Template:Template name/en subpage.
Each language version of the template should be checked and converted to use the layout template –Template:Template name/layout–. Start with the English language version and compare it to the current template.
Note that everything that is not supposed to be included together with the template, like {{translated tag|cleanup}} or {{documentation}}, must be inside a <noinclude> tag.
Here is the syntax you must use for Template:Template name/<prefix>.
{{Template name/layout
|text=<translated text of the template>
|lang=<prefix>
}}<noinclude>{{translated tag|marker}}</noinclude>
Create a documentation page
[ਸੋਧੋ]Create a documentation page at Template:Template name/doc. This documentation page should include some code for creating language versions of the template. {{TemplateBox}} has a |il8n=autotranslate option which provides a standard explanation of how to localise an autotranslated template.
Convert the main template
[ਸੋਧੋ]The last step is to enable the template. Be sure to check everything before you enable the template. You can cause a really big mess!
To enable the template, put this code in the template –Template:Template name–.
{{Autotranslate|1={{{1|}}}|2={{{2|}}}|3={{{3|}}}|base=template name}}
Code snippet
[ਸੋਧੋ]To use this template, include the following code:
{{Autotranslate|1={{{1|}}}|2={{{2|}}}|3={{{3|}}}|4={{{4|}}}|5={{{5|}}}|6={{{6|}}}|7={{{7|}}}|8={{{8|}}}|9={{{9|}}}|base={{subst:PAGENAME}}}}
