This is the documentation page for Module:Lang

This module exists primarily to provide correct html markup for non-English language text where that text is used in the English Wikipedia. It has a secondary purpose of providing correct visual rendering for this non-English text. The module was developed to consolidate processing for {{Lang}}, the {{lang-??}} (most), and {{Transl}} templates into a single source and to use a clearly defined data set extracted from international standards. It provides error checking and reporting to ensure that the html rendered is correct for browsers and screen readers.
