Template:CURRENTCONTENTLANGUAGE: Difference between revisions

<includeonly>{{#ifeqif:{{#languageinvoke:{{SUBPAGENAME}}Template translation|getLanguageSubpage}}|{{lc#invoke:{{SUBPAGENAME}}Template translation|getLanguageSubpage}}|{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}|{{SUBPAGENAME}}}}</includeonly><noinclude>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 &#123;{CONTENTLANGUAGE}} (the default content language; on this wiki: "{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}" for {{#language:{{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}|en}}).

(Note: there could be false positive: e.g. 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 (see [[bugzilla:57603]]), 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.
