This template returns the "content language" of the current page; more precisely it checks if the current title ends with a language code, and if it is the case it returns this language code, else "en" for English.
Examples:
- on "Bar/foo", this template returns "en";
- on "Bar/foo/hu", this template returns "hu".
(Note: on "Foo/bar" it returns "bar" because "bar" is the language code for Bavarian; "foo" is not a language code; very small (2 or 3 letters) last words can be a problem as seen here.)
This template takes no argument, and acts as a magic word. If such a magic word is created in MediaWiki, this template could be deleted. Note that the definition of "content language" here is broader than the (page-specific) content language in MediaWiki, which can currently only be set by the Translate extension or some very special pages.
