This page should be moved to MediaWiki.org .
Please do not move the page by hand. It will be imported by a MediaWiki.org administrator with the full edit history. In the meantime, you may continue to edit the page as normal.
User language boxes list the languages an editor is comfortable communicating in, and their proficiency. This improves communication across the diverse community, both directly and by helping find interpreters and translators.
Usage
You can add user information to your user page by inserting code like this:
{{#babel:ru-N|en-5|fr-1}}
This outputs the boxes you see at right. You can add as many languages as you want, in the form language code-proficiency level.
- Language code
- The extension recognizes standard ISO 639 (1–3) language codes. You can find your language by searching the list of ISO 639-1 codes.
- Proficiency
- The proficiency describes how well you can communicate in the language. It's indicated by a single character from the Proficiency column in the table below:
| Proficiency

To remove the header and footer, use plain=1 as the first parameter, e.g. {{#babel:plain=1|sv-N|zh-3|de-1}}. This makes it easier to use with other userboxes.
For example, you can present them horizontally (each box taking a fixed width of 242px, including its tiny 1px margin) within another container box like:
<div class="mw-babel-box-horizontal"><templatestyles src="Template:User language/babel-box-custom.css"/>
{{#babel:plain=1|ru-N|en-GB-5|de-4|nl-3|fr-3|it-2|oc-2|ca-2|es-2|pt-1|tr-0|vi-0|el-0|hy-0|ka-0|bn-0|hi-0|ml-0|ta-0|my-0|th-0|ur-0|ar-0|he-0|ko-0|ja-0|zh-Hans-0|zh-Hant-0}}
<div style="clear:both"></div>
</div>

But this requires inserting a custom CSS stylesheet to override the default clear:right (on pages with the LTR direction for the content language) and clear:left (on pages with a RTL direction for the content language) into clear:none. The stylesheet may also resize fonts, and the line-height for specific scripts used in the description, to improve the horizontal alignment of boxes and get a more flexible layout.
