{{Notice|{{large|This template '''{{color|red|should not be placed on article pages directly}}'''. Instead, choose a language-specific template from [[:Category:Expand by language Wikipedia templates]].}}}}

=== Typical usage ===

If you find an article in the English Wikipedia is much less complete than the corresponding article in another language, there are a series of templates you can use to announce this on the page. Do not use this template, but instead, please use the appropriate template in [[:Category:Expand by language Wikipedia templates]]. If the language you are looking for doesn't already have a template, see below for instructions on how to make one.

=== How to create a new daughter template using this template ===

<pre>
{{Expand language
|langcode=
|otherarticle={{{1|}}}
|date={{{date|}}}
|fa={{{fa|}}}
|topic=
|nodoc={{{nodoc|}}}
|no interwiki={{{no interwiki|}}}
}}</pre>

Example for Spanish (see {{tl|Expand Spanish}}):

<pre>
{{Expand language
|langcode=es
|otherarticle={{{1|}}}
|date={{{date|}}}
|fa={{{fa|}}}
|topic={{{topic|}}}
}}</pre>

Uncommon override parameters:

<pre>
|googlelangcode= <!-- for where Google's language translation code is not the same as the Wikipedia language translation code -->
</pre>

(Currently only used in Template:Expand Norwegian (Nynorsk).)

For a list of all daughter templates, see [[:Category:Expand by language Wikipedia templates]].

=== What else needs to be done after you set up the template ===

For all of these steps, replace XXXX with the name of the language you just created. {{what|reason=Who created a language ? When are these steps supposed to be done ? This is not clear.}}

;1. Create a template documentation page.

This is easy. Just go to [[Template:Expand XXXX/doc]]. There, you should paste <code><nowiki>{{Expand language/howto|XXXX}}</nowiki></code>.

;2. Set up the category where articles to be translated will go.

Go to [[:Category:Articles needing translation from XXXX Wikipedia]]. There, paste the following:

<pre>
{{Transcat
|language=XXXX
|empty=y
}}
</pre>

You can also add categories there for Wikiprojects that may be interested.
