Template documentation

<translate>

Purpose

</translate> <translate> This helper template can be used to link to [[<tvar name=1>Special:LanguageStats</tvar>|translatable pages]] in the user's language.</translate> <translate> It uses the special page prefix <tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/</tvar>, which checks if there is a translated version of a page in the user's language, and links to it if there is one, and links to a fallback language where available, or the default wiki language version (English in MediaWiki) if there isn't.</translate>

<translate> It should be used in translated pages, so that they link to the right page even if there is no translated page in that language.

Usage

</translate> Plantilla:Localized link/doc

<translate> If the "<tvar name=1>nsp</tvar>" parameter is not defined, as link text this displays the full pagename (including the namespace); otherwise — if the "<tvar name=1>nsp</tvar>" parameter is defined to any value the link text displays the short pagename (without the namespace).

Examples of simple usage

</translate> Plantilla:(| class="wikitable" |- ! <translate> Use</translate> ! <translate> Becomes</translate> |- | {{ll|Communication}} | Communication |- | {{ll|Communication|コミュニケーション}} | コミュニケーション |- | {{ll|Project:About}} | Project:About |- | {{ll|Project:About|nsp=0}} | About |Plantilla:)

Usage in translatable pages

On pages prepared for translation with the <tvar name=1>Extension:Translate </tvar> extension, this template may be used in three ways. </translate>

1. <translate> Substitute this template, then embed the wikilink target in a <tvar name=1>[[:Plantilla:^(]]tvar name=id[[:Plantilla:)^]]...[[:Plantilla:^(]]/tvar[[:Plantilla:)^]]</tvar>, separate from the translatable text of the link.</translate>

   <translate> For example, instead of <tvar name=1>{{ll|Communication|About communication}}</tvar>, the translation markup in the translatable page will be <tvar name=2>[[[[:Plantilla:^(]]tvar name=1[[:Plantilla:)^]]Special:MyLanguage/Communication[[:Plantilla:^(]]/tvar[[:Plantilla:)^]]|About communication]]</tvar>.</translate>

2. <translate> Alternatively, exclude this code from the translatable section.</translate>

   <translate> For example, for <tvar name=1>some text {{ll|Communication|About communication}} some text</tvar>, the translation markup in the translatable page will be:</translate>

   [[:Plantilla:^(]]translate[[:Plantilla:)^]]some text[[:Plantilla:^(]]/translate[[:Plantilla:)^]] {{ll|Communication|2=[[:Plantilla:^(]]translate[[:Plantilla:)^]]About communication[[:Plantilla:^(]]/translate[[:Plantilla:)^]]}} [[:Plantilla:^(]]translate[[:Plantilla:)^]]some text[[:Plantilla:^(]]/translate[[:Plantilla:)^]]

   <translate> This is useful for bulleted lists of links, e.g. in the "See also:" sections.</translate>

3. <translate> If link text is the same as the name of the target page, all of the code could also be embedded into <tvar name=1><tvar></tvar>.</translate>

   <translate> For example, instead of <tvar name=1>{{ll|Communication}}</tvar>, the wikicode in the translatable page will be <tvar name=2>[[:Plantilla:^(]]tvar name=1[[:Plantilla:)^]]{{ll|Communication}}[[:Plantilla:^(]]/tvar[[:Plantilla:)^]]</tvar>.</translate>
