This template is used to indicate to readers that an external link is in a foreign language.
It should generally be placed after the external link, although this is not set in stone; for more information, see the Manual of Style. English is the default language, and does not need to be noted using this template, unless there is a reason the reader would assume the link to be in a foreign language (e.g. a foreign title).
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
[स्रोत सम्पादन]{{link language|<language code>}}
{{link language|<language code>|cat-lang=<language name>}}
The language code is usually an ISO 639 code but it may be any valid IETF language tag. Note that language codes do not always coincide with country codes; see the list of ISO 3166-1 codes. The language name displayed is obtained via {{#invoke:Lang|name_from_tag}} which uses the following data:
- Module:Lang/data – special override codes / names (looks here first)
- Module:Language/data/iana languages – as defined by the IETF-sanctioned IANA registry
- Module:Language/data/ISO 639-3 – as defined in ISO 639-3
- Module:Language/data/wp languages – specific to Wikipedia
Articles using this template are automatically added to a language-specific hidden category. For example, an article using {{link language|fr}} is added to Category:Articles with French-language external links. The |cat-lang= parameter may be used in cases where the language name displayed is different from the language name in the category.

User-defined CSS
[स्रोत सम्पादन]Logged in users can change the appearance of the template's output using CSS with the languageicon class. For example, edit Special:MyPage/common.css and add span.languageicon { font-weight: bold; }. That would result in {{link language|fr}} being displayed as (in French) instead of (in French).
