Template:Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl/sandbox

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

The purpose of this template is to indicate that two spans of text belong to Serbo-Croatian; one in non-Latin script and the other in a Latin script that is not a transliteration or romanization of the non-Latin text. This template finds application with languages that have native alphabets that are equal in status; Serbo-Croatian for example. This template is a wrapper template that uses {{lang-x2}}

Syntax and usage

The minimal implementation has the form:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|<Latin text>|<non-Latin text>}}

where the two required parameters are:

<Latin text> – the Latin-script text; must be written only using Latin Unicode characters

<non-Latin text> – the non-Latin-script text; must not be written using Latin Unicode characters

By default, this template will place articles into the relevant subcategory of Category:Articles containing non-English-language text.

Parameters

In addition to the two required positional parameters, this template accepts one other positional parameter and several named parameters that are the same as or similar to those supported by {{lang}} and {{lang-??}}.

{{{3}}} – the third positional parameter is the translation of <Latin text> and <non-Latin text>

|cat= – takes the value no to inhibit language categorization; inverse of |nocat=yes

|italic1= – italic control for the <Latin text>; see Template:Lang § Parameters for details

|italic2= – italic control for the <non-Latin text>

|label= – label to be used instead of template-provided language label; may be wikilinked; special keyword none causes the template to render without a label

|link= – takes the value no to prevent the language-name label from being linked; |link=no does not unlink wikilinked labels set by |label=

|nocat= – takes the value yes to inhibit language categorization; inverse of |cat=no

|region1= – used to create an IETF language tag for the <Latin text>; see Template:Lang § Parameters

|region2= – used to create an IETF language tag for the <non-Latin text>

|script1= – used to create an IETF language tag for the <Latin text>; see Template:Lang § Parameters

|script2= – used to create an IETF language tag for the <non-Latin text>

|variant1= – used to create an IETF language tag for the <Latin text>; see Template:Lang § Parameters

|variant2= – used to create an IETF language tag for <non-Latin text>

There is one unique parameter:

|separator= – accepts , (comma; default), ; (semicolon), / (solidus), or a quoted string of text; see §Examples

Examples

The basic form:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)}}

Serbo-Croatian: Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ), Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

to use a different separator, use |separator=/:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ) |separator=/}}

Serbo-Croatian: Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)/Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

the same but with spaces around the solidus, use |separator=" / ":

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ) |separator=" / "}}

Serbo-Croatian: Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ) / Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

templates may include quote marks in their output so when using a template in |separator=, make sure that the wrapping quote marks are of the other flavor

{{red|or}} → <span style="color: red;">or</span>

so write:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ) |separator=' {{red|or}} '}}

Serbo-Croatian: Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ) or Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

fidget with italics:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ) |italic1=no |italic2=yes}}

Serbo-Croatian: Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ), Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

to create IETF language tags for the html:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ) |script1=Latn |script2=Cyrl}}

Serbo-Croatian: Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ), Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

[[Serbo-Croatian language|Serbo-Croatian]]: <i lang="sh-Latn">Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)</i>, <span title="Serbo-Croatian-language text"><span lang="sh-Cyrl">Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)</span></span>

to hide the automatic language label, use |label=none:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ) |label=none}}

Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ), Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

to use a different label, use |label=:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ) |label=[[League of Communists of Yugoslavia]]}}

League of Communists of Yugoslavia: Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ), Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

to unlink the automatic language label, use |link=no:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ)|Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ) |link=no}}

Serbo-Croatian: Savez komunista Jugoslavije (SKJ), Савез комуниста Југославије (CKJ)

to include a translation:

{{Lang-sh-Latn-Cyrl|Jugoslavenska ratna mornarica|Југословенска ратна морнарица|Yugoslav War Navy}}

Serbo-Croatian: Jugoslavenska ratna mornarica, Југословенска ратна морнарица, lit. 'Yugoslav War Navy'

Error messages

This template calls {{lang}} and the appropriate {{lang-??}} templates. When those templates encounter errors, they will render their own error messages; for assistance, see the help text linked from their error messages.

There are error messages unique to this template. These are:

missing a required argument – one or more of <Latin text> or <non-Latin text> is missing or empty; both are required

<text1> is not Latin script – <Latin text> must be Latin-script text

<text2> is Latin script – <non-Latin text> must not be Latin-script text
