{{{Languages|PageName}}}
PageName should be the name of the English version of the page. Each non-English version is a sub-page of the English version, using the corresponding language code, and should include this template in the same way.
For example, on the Main Page you would include the text {{{Languages|Main Page}}}, both on Main Page itself, and on each of its language sub-pages. The template automatically creates links to any language sub-pages that exist, e.g. Main Page/ja<tt>, <tt>Main Page/fr, and ignores non-existant languages
3 Supported languages
This shows you the name of each language's sub-page (using Main Page as an example). Other languages may be added easily as necessary. Please use the appropriate prefix, as used on Wikipedia when adding a new language. Please do not add languages for which no pages exist yet, as this will increase the time needed to include the template without adding any benefit (languages are only displayed to the user when the relevant page exists).
