Template:T
{{T}} template is used to translate links from English to the current article's language (subpage language code). The names are generated based on the data in the Template:Translation database.
This is not to be confused with the {{Tr}} template, which is a shorthand way of writing the {{Translation}} template.
Usage
Default translation
If the current article subpage is /pl (Polish):
{{T|Hammer}}
Will result in:
Which links to Młotek.
Custom translation
Similar to a normal link, a pipe | can be used after the English word, then proceeded by the desired word/phrase.
For example on a Polish page:
{{T|Hammer|Młotki}}
Will result in:
Which still links to Młotek.
Translation inside the T
It is also possible to use the template {{Translation}} or {{Tr}} after the |, while still inside the T. This will result in the desired word/phrase being translated to the other language if it is registered.
In the next example, the items that are in Brazilian Portuguese translate to:
- Bebida Quente == Hot Cuppa
- Bebida Gelada == Cold Cuppa
For example on the Brazilian Portuguese Food page:
{{T|Hot Cuppa|{{Tr|Cold Cuppa}}}}
Will result in:
Which still links to Bebida Quente.
Remove link
Alternatively, the link can be removed, showing only the translated text.
For example on a Polish page:
{{T|Hammer|no link}}
Will result in:
