{{Interwiki}} is a template that serves to link the different language versions of the same article.

Usage

First step: create a template named Template:InterwikiLink:ArticleName. Replacing "ArticleName" by the original name of the article (in English) without spaces and using UpperCamelCase style. Example: for the article "Pierogi with cheese" create the template Template:InterwikiLink:PierogiWithCheese. If necessary, also include the NAMESPACE within the name. Example: for the category "Animals" create the template Template:InterwikiLink:CategoryAnimals.

Second step: put the following code in the template created.

{{Interwiki
| de = 
| en = 
| es = 
| eo = 
| fr = 
| lt = 
| jbo = 
| nl = 
| pl = 
| pt = 
| ru = 
| fi = 
| sv = 
| tr = 
| ch = 
}}

Third step: add the different names of the article in the appropriate fields. Delete the unused fields. For example:

{{Interwiki
| de = Kabeljau
| en = Cod
| eo = moruo
| es = Bacalao
| sv = Torsk
}}

or for categories:

{{
| en  = :Category:Animals
| es  = :Category:Animales
}}

Fourth and last step: add the following code at the top of the original article and also in all language versions of the article.

{{InterwikiLink:ArticleName}}

Replacing "ArticleName" by the original name of the article (in English) without spaces and using UpperCamelCase style.
