Template documentation

Usage

This template is used to identify (in HTML metadata) that the text enclosed within the template is written in a specific national English-language dialect, and to preface it with a link to the article on that variety. It is most commonly used:

• In , when presenting two regional variations of a term sharing the same definition (e.g. tire vs. tyre, aluminium vs. aluminum)
• When giving alternative names for an article's topic, in the lead section
• When demonstrating differences between dialectal usages in language articles.

This template , since English dialects are not foreign languages.

It is never used to mark entire articles or sections of articles as being written in a particular variety of English.

Do not use it to indicate a general English example among other-language examples.
