== Usage ==
A Lua-free reimplementation of Wikipedia's <nowiki>{{lang}}</nowiki>, built for Politicalsg because the wiki cannot run Scribunto/Lua (<code>proc_open</code> is blocked; any <code>#invoke</code> errors). This version uses only <code>{{#if:}}</code> and <code>{{#switch:}}</code>.

<pre>{{lang|language code|text}}</pre>

'''Deviations from the Wikipedia original — read before assuming parity:'''
* No Lua means no full IETF-tag validation, no ISO 639 database lookup, and no automatic per-language subcategorisation. Everything below is hand-coded.
* '''Italics default''' is decided by a fixed list of language codes, not real script detection. CJK, Arabic, Hebrew, Devanagari, Cyrillic-family and a few other non-Latin codes render upright by default; everything else (French, German, Malay, Spanish, etc.) renders in italics by default. Override with <code>|italic=yes</code>, <code>|italic=no</code>, or <code>|italic=unset</code>.
* The <code>title="...-language text"</code> attribute only resolves a language ''name'' for the codes in the switch list above (mainly the ones actually in use on this wiki: Chinese variants, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Arabic, Hebrew, Hindi, Tamil, Russian, Malay, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Latin). Anything else falls back to showing the raw code, e.g. <code>title="cy-language text"</code> instead of "Welsh-language text". Add more codes to the switch list as the wiki needs them.
* Categorisation is a single flat <code>[[Category:Articles containing non-English-language text]]</code>, not per-language subcategories (Wikipedia's Module:Lang generates ~150 of those; not worth building without Lua). Suppress with <code>|nocat=yes</code>.
* No support for script/region/variant subtags beyond what's hard-coded above (no <code>zh-Latn-pinyin</code>-style transliteration handling, no <code>-x-proto</code> asterisk prefixing). If a page needs that, extend the switch list rather than trying to genericise it — this wiki's actual use cases are narrow (mostly Chinese-language quotes in event pages).
* No <code>{{langx}}</code> companion template built yet. If a page needs the "Chinese: 讲华语" prefixed form, that would be a separate template built the same way (switch-based name lookup + this same span logic).

=== Examples ===
<pre>{{lang|zh-Hans|讲华语运动}}</pre> → renders upright, <code>title="Chinese-language text"</code>

<pre>{{lang|fr|Je suis française.}}</pre> → renders in italics, <code>title="French-language text"</code>

<pre>{{lang|zh-Hans|讲华语运动|nocat=yes}}</pre> → same, but does not add the category (use inside wikilinks/citation titles, same as upstream)
