Template:Native name list/doc

Template page

This template creates a correctly formatted list of native names. Typical uses would be the |native name= parameter common to many infoboxes.

Usage

Like {{native name}}, but this template takes only enumerated parameter names. |tagn= and |namen= are required, in pairs. Do not skip suffix numbers (|tag1=.. |tag3=..= File:Red x.svgN).

These parameters are:

{{native name list
|tag1      =
|name1     =
|italics1  =
|paren1    =
|parensize1=
|nolink1   =
|postfix1  =

|tag2      =
|name2     =
|italics2  =
|paren2    =
|parensize2=
|nolink2   =
|postfix2  =
}}
Parameter name Description and examples Required
|tagn= The IETF language tag code for the native language. French, for instance, is "fr"; Spanish is "es"; Arabic is "ar"; etc. yes
|namen= The native name, in the native language (with accents, etc.). yes
|italicsn=
(or |italicn=)
Set to "off" or "no" to disable displaying the native name in italics.

Example: |italicsn=off

no
|parenn=
(or |iconn=)
Set to "omit", "off" or "no" to suppress the appearance of the native language's name in a parenthesis after the native name.

Example: |parenn=omit

no
|parensizen=
(or |fontsizen=)
Use to specify a font-size for the parenthesis. Per MOS:FONTSIZE, do not make this text smaller in infoboxes, since the text is already at 88% of normal.

Example: |parensizen=90%

no
|nolinkn= Set to anything (e.g. "on") to suppress the appearance of the native language's name as a link. no
|postfixn= adds additional wikitext to list-itemn; typical use might be references or for wikilinked 'language' name for those languages that do not have an IETF language tag; see examples no
