{{TemplateBox
|name = language
|desc=Template based on the <code>#language</code> parser ([[mw:Help:Magic_words#Miscellaneous|help page]]). It returns a language name in the user's language, or in any other language specified by a second parameter.

|1=1
|1d=language code (most of the time, but not always [[:en:ISO 639-3|ISO codes]]. See http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/cldr/ for details.
|2=2
|2d=language in which the language name should be returned (if different from the user's preferred language)
|2def=<code><nowiki>{{int:lang}}</nowiki></code>
|seealso=[[User:Rocket000/Languages/more]] for potentially missing languages)
|namespace=all

== Techical documentation ==

Needs [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:CLDR|Extension:CLDR]] to work ''and'' most importantly [[MediaWiki:Lang]] to be set. If [[MediaWiki:Lang]] is not defined with e.g. “en” it searches for a language “<lang>“ in [[mediawikiwiki:Extension:CLDR|Extension:CLDR]] causing the page to disappear and showing an internal error message to switch on debugging. List of MediaWiki:Lang pages in this Wiki are:
