Help:User page templates

User page templates are small widgets that you can put on your user page as well as other people's user pages.

ℹ️ — Note. You will need the Source Editor Hover over your profile picture and click View Profile. If it says that your user page does not exist, go ahead and create one. On your user page, hover over (do not click) the blue Edit ▾ button so that a dropdown menu appears. Select Edit Source. Congratulations, you found the Source Editor! Don't forget to check the Preview before submitting your work.

Language boxes

Babel

en-N This user is a native speaker of English. hi-5 This user can contribute with a professional level of Hindi. es-4 This user can contribute with a near-native level of Spanish. pt-3 This user can contribute with an advanced level of Portuguese. ko-2 This user can contribute with an intermediate level of Korean. zh-1 This user can contribute with a basic level of Chinese. jp-0 日本語わからない！

Languages boxes are reminiscent of Wikipedia's Babel. Their purpose is to facilitate trans-lingual collaboration, making it easier to contact a user who speaks certain languages.

For two-letter language codes, see List of ISO 639-1 codes.

Example

{| class="wikitable"
|+ [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Babel|Babel]]
|-
|
{{User lang|en-N|English}}
{{User lang|hi-5|Hindi}}
{{User lang|es-4|Spanish}}
{{User lang|pt-3|Portuguese}}
{{User lang|ko-2|Korean}}
{{User lang|zh-1|Chinese}}
{{User lang|jp-0|text=日本語わからない！}}
|}

Some things to note:

• Use language codes, not country codes.
• Make sure the language code is correct.
• Place language boxes on your user page only.

Community awards

If you have found a good article and believe that its contributor should be recognized for their diligence, give them an award!

To give an award, place the Honor template on a contributor's user page and write a personal message. Yes, the magic of a wiki allows you to edit any contributor's user page. No, you don't need our permission to give awards.

This community does not have user talk pages. (It has UCP message walls.)

Some things to note:

• Use the Preview function to avoid spamming the notification box of others.
• Check your spelling and grammar before submitting.
• Be personal! We don't have a barnstar competition.

If you received an award

Congratulations, you've got an award! YAY!

What can you do with it? You may keep it, move it, or delete it.

By default, we assume you are willing to receive community awards. To opt out, put a courtesy message on your user page.
