Helper template to handle italics, right-to-left script issues, and the literal param for "lang-xx" templates like {{lang-rus}}. Do not use this template directly.
Usage
[edit]Transcluded by "lang-xx" templates.
Right-to-left
[edit]For languages written right-to-left, like Arabic, Hebrew and other, it is advised to set |rtl={{rtl}} in the language template (e.g. lang-ar, lang-he).
This adds the character U+200F RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK (‏) to the end of the string (the righthand side, in memory). It is an invisible formatting character, that terminates the R-to-L text. After this, (that is, directly after & outside of the template), all following text is initiated to be left-to-right (English) again.
Italics
[edit]Set italic to
nofor non-italic textyes(default) for italic text
Category suppression
[edit]If you want to suppress category output from the template, use |nocat=true.
