User:Willscrlt/meta/lang
This template combines features of commons:Template:Description and commons:Template:Internationalization icon along with some original ideas, to create a single template that identifies blocks of text by language. Its creator uses it to help readers quickly locate their native language on pages with multiple translations. This is one of several internationalized templates that Will has created or is currently developing.
