Module:Wikt-lang/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Module:Wikt-lang.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original module page.

This module is rated as alpha. It is ready for limited use and third-party feedback. It may be used on a small number of pages, but should be monitored closely. Suggestions for new features or adjustments to input and output are welcome.

Usage

This module is inspired by the templates {{m}} and {{l}} 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 formatting function does most of what {{lang}} does, as well as applying appropriate italicization.

It should eventually be able to generate the text in numerous {{lang-xx}} templates, such as {{lang-fr}}. (Or even more ambitious, it could generate automatic transliteration and IPA for some languages, to be used in templates like {{lang-rus}}.)
