Template:Language icon/Notes
{{Language icon/Notes}} is a template usually used to indicate to readers that an external link is in a foreign language; no parameters are needed.
It should generally be placed after the external link, although this is not set in stone.
The template uses the {{Language icon}} format, but is shortened by simply having the name {{xx icon}}
, where xx
represents the language code. These can be found in the "Alpha-2" column of the list of ISO 639 codes.
On a side note, please be aware that language codes do not always coincide with country codes (see the list of ISO 3166-1 codes).
