Help:Interlanguage links
Links between different language versions of Wikipedia / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Interlanguage links are links from a page in one Wikipedia language to an equivalent page in another language. These links can appear as links in a dropdown menu in the top right corner of the page if you use the default Vector 2022 skin, or in the "Languages" section of the page's left sidebar in other skins.
For style guidelines about links, see MOS:LINK. For linking between Wikimedia sister projects (e.g. from Wikipedia to Wiktionary), see Help:Interwiki linking. For a list of Wikipedias in other languages with their language codes, see List of Wikipedias § Details table. For a list of interlanguage codes, see list of ISO 639-1 codes and meta:List of Wikipedias.
This help page is a how-to guide. It details processes or procedures of some aspect(s) of Wikipedia's norms and practices. It is not one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, and may reflect varying levels of consensus and vetting. |
Less commonly, interlanguage links can be used as inline links in the text of a Wikipedia page.
These two types of links are created and handled differently.
