;Description
+
The localization template is the other half of the '''Audio''' section. This table displays all the languages a game supports (both official and fan-made) and the elements of which the localization/translation covers (interface, subtitles, and/or audio). Due to the numerous languages available, the table has been designed to be dynamic so only the relevant languages are shown.
−
This is the localization template. The following languages are currently supported:

{{ii}} Localization information is rarely kept track of and will make filling in the tables difficult.

:* Currently, the most reliable source of information on this topic is Steam and even then the tables they provide are sometimes not completely accurate.

:* Ultimately, the best sources will be owning the game and playing it, the game credits (localization teams and cast will be mentioned somewhere), and any official announcements on language support.
−
|-
+
{{ii}} If there is both an official and a fan-made localization available and there is an overlap between the two (e.g. both translates the interface, audio, or subtitles, although differently), add individual sections for both. One that applies to the official localization (<code>fan=<blank></code>) and one that applies to the fan-made localization (<code>fan=true</code>); per [[#Example #3|Example #3]].
−
| Simplified Chinese || [[Property:Simplified Chinese interface]] || [[Property:Simplified Chinese subtitles]] || [[Property:Simplified Chinese audio]] || [[Property:Simplified Chinese status]]

:* If however there is no direct overlap, keep the two contained in a single section and use <code>fan=true</code> and '''hackable''' on the relevant parameter which the fan-made localization improves upon; per [[#Example #2|Example #2]].

{{mm}} The languages the table support all have at least one game that is localized in that language. If a game is localized in a language that is not supported by the table, ask in the #wiki-support channel in our [[PCGamingWiki:Discord|Discord]] server for a senior editor or above to add it for you.

{{--}} In opposite to what a lot of other templates do, this template adds an <code><nowiki><h3>Localizations</h3></nowiki></code> header at the beginning where used. This can make it slightly less flexible on non-standard pages.

;Arguments
+
==Arguments==
−
{{ii}} The following arguments, excluding the notes arguments, can be listed as "true", "false", or "N/A". "Hackable" should not be used with this template, see the {{Code|fan}} argument for fan translations.
 
  
−
* {{Code|language}} - Name of the language a game supports, see above list for all languages currently supported with this template;
+
The parameters, excluding the notes and ref parameter, can be set to '''unknown''', '''true''', '''false''', '''n/a''', or '''hackable''' :
−
* {{Code|interface}} - Whether the game's interface, e.g. menus, pause screen, health bar, is translated into the relevant language;
+
* '''unknown''' - This information is not known or not tested.
−
* {{Code|audio}} - Whether the game's audio, e.g. voice acting, is translated into the relevant language;
+
* '''true''' - An official localization exists and ships with the game (or a version of the game). No custom hacking is expected, although config editing or similar might be required.
−
* {{Code|subtitles}} - Whether the game's subtitles and/or closed captioning is translated into the relevant language;
+
* '''false''' - No official localization is available for the game.
−
* {{Code|notes}} - Any content which is to appear in the ''Notes'' column should be written here;
+
* '''n/a''' - The parameter is not applicable to the game, e.g. the game does not feature any audio and/or subtitles that needs localization.
−
* {{Code|fan}} - Whether the game has a fan-made, unofficial translation for the relevant language. Should always either be defined as "yes" or kept blank, adds a comment in the ''Notes'' column which tells the reader the translation is unofficial;
+
* '''hackable''' - This value have effectively two meanings depending on the value of {{Code|fan}} :
 +
 
 +
:* <code>fan=true</code> - A fan localization is available and can be hacked (aka modded) into the game. Set the corresponding parameter that the fan localization affects to '''hackable''' - e.g. if it only affects subtitles, set <code>subtitles=hackable</code> to indicate as such.
 +
 
 +
:* <code>fan=<blank></code> - A fan localization is '''not''' available, however an official localization is available in some form and can be hacked (aka modded) into the game. Set the corresponding parameter that the official localization affects to '''hackable''' - e.g. if it only affects subtitles, set <code>subtitles=hackable</code> to indicate as such.

The localization template is the other half of the Audio section. This table displays all the languages a game supports (both official and fan-made) and the elements of which the localization/translation covers (interface, subtitles, and/or audio). Due to the numerous languages available, the table has been designed to be dynamic so only the relevant languages are shown.

Related templates

Notes

The table is in alphabetical order (A-Z).
  • The only exception to this is the English row. Unless the game has no English translation, the row always stays at the top of the table.
Localization information is rarely kept track of and will make filling in the tables difficult.
  • Currently, the most reliable source of information on this topic is Steam and even then the tables they provide are sometimes not completely accurate.
  • Ultimately, the best sources will be owning the game and playing it, the game credits (localization teams and cast will be mentioned somewhere), and any official announcements on language support.
If there is both an official and a fan-made localization available and there is an overlap between the two (e.g. both translates the interface, audio, or subtitles, although differently), add individual sections for both. One that applies to the official localization (fan=<blank>) and one that applies to the fan-made localization (fan=true); per Example #3.
  • If however there is no direct overlap, keep the two contained in a single section and use fan=true and hackable on the relevant parameter which the fan-made localization improves upon; per Example #2.
To create lists over fan-made localization of games, see List of Russian fan translations as an example.
The languages the table support all have at least one game that is localized in that language. If a game is localized in a language that is not supported by the table, ask in the #wiki-support channel in our Discord server for a senior editor or above to add it for you.
In opposite to what a lot of other templates do, this template adds an <h3>Localizations</h3> header at the beginning where used. This can make it slightly less flexible on non-standard pages.

Parameters

Parameter Definition/Notes
Language The name of the language; see Supported languages for supported values.
If a game is localized in a language that is not supported by the table, contact a mod or admin and it will be added in.
Interface The game interface (e.g. menus, pause screen, health bar) is localized to this language.
If a game supports a language, at the absolute minimum this field must be set to true.
Audio The spoken audio for the game is localized to this language. In some cases, English may be the only language it has been localized into.
If a game has no speech, gibberish for speech (single word remarks fall into this category), or all text-based speech, set the field to n/a.
Subtitles The subtitles and/or closed captions for the game are localized to this language. More common to find than spoken audio localizations.
If a game has no speech, gibberish for speech (single word remarks fall into this category), nor any closed caption option, set the field to n/a.
Notes Extra information relating to the particular language (available only in region-specific versions, unique quirks and issues, etc).
For a fan-made localization/translation include a link to the download, installation instructions, etc.
This parameter cannot handle references! List the references in the ref parameter instead.
Ref Used as a follow-up parameter to notes, to allow references to be listed at the end of the notes parameter.
Fan One or more parameters of this particular language section refers to a fan-made localization that is available and can be hacked in.
To be used in conjunction with the Notes field. Only valid value is true, all other values are dismissed and counted as "official".

Arguments

The parameters, excluding the notes and ref parameter, can be set to unknown, true, false, n/a, or hackable :

  • unknown - This information is not known or not tested.
  • true - An official localization exists and ships with the game (or a version of the game). No custom hacking is expected, although config editing or similar might be required.
  • false - No official localization is available for the game.
  • n/a - The parameter is not applicable to the game, e.g. the game does not feature any audio and/or subtitles that needs localization.
  • hackable - This value have effectively two meanings depending on the value of fan :
  • fan=true - A fan localization is available and can be hacked (aka modded) into the game. Set the corresponding parameter that the fan localization affects to hackable - e.g. if it only affects subtitles, set subtitles=hackable to indicate as such.
  • fan=<blank> - A fan localization is not available, however an official localization is available in some form and can be hacked (aka modded) into the game. Set the corresponding parameter that the official localization affects to hackable - e.g. if it only affects subtitles, set subtitles=hackable to indicate as such.
