This category contains articles with above mentioned-language text.

The primary purpose of these categories is to facilitate manual or automated checking of text in other languages.

This category should only be added with the {{Lang}} family of templates, never explicitly.

For example: {{Lang|ISO code|text in language here}}.

Note

This category is indirectly triggered by the templates:

Purpose

To allow rapid set up of and consistency between the categories.

Usage

Do not "subst:" (substitute).

None of the parameters are essential, but it would seem the language name is always going to be there

{{Category articles containing non-English-language text|example=some example text|script=name of script|Language name|ISO 693-1 code|ISO 693-2 code|ISO 693-3 code}}

e.g., for the Category:Articles containing French-language text

{{Category articles containing non-English-language text|example=La plume de ma tante|French|fr|fre|fra}}

very optional named parameter

• script =

This should be a standalone expression like foo script Ogham runes bar characters as it completes a parenthetical (in script). In many cases it will be implicit or rolled into the language parameter.

Note

The template expects to be called with the ISO 639-1 -2 and -3 codes in order. Since not all languages have ISO 639 1 or 2 it uses parameter 4 for default ISO code for the example.
