Module:Languages/උපදෙස්
This is the documentation page for Module:Languages
 |
This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature form and is thought to be relatively bug-free and ready for use wherever appropriate. It is ready to mention on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users to learn. To reduce server load and bad output, it should be improved by sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing. |
Supported languages (mappings in "MediaWiki:Lang/code" for {{int:lang}}, and their current native names)

Note that as of 2020-10-18, there's a new bug in Scribunto, which causes the standard "table.sort()" function to no longer accept a standard comparison function. Now when "table.sort()" fails, the error is correctly catched (instead of producing a visible error), but the list may not be sorted correctly (temporarily) in some cases. The bug is tracked and corrected in Mediawiki but waiting to be deployed with the fix. Nothing will need to be changed (using "perror()" will then no longer have any effect, it is just needed for now and the bug was not a bug of this module which was properly tested and sudddently failed unexpectedly). Thanks.
Note:
- The list is retrieved using Module:Languages/List and sorted in native language name (LTR languages before RTL languages, then each one sorted by native script and then a locale-neutral sort order within each script) using Module:Multilingual description/sort (which is the consistant sort order used for multilingual navigation navigation boxes, or for showing lists of translations in multilingual descriptions, in a user-friendly way). For seeing the complete list of languages, tested with their directionality, look at the tests results table on Module talk:Multilingual description/sort/testcases.
