Usage
edit{{Translator|ja-zh|eng - fr, de|spa , deu- ita, swe}} results in the following floating table:
| Translator in the following language combinations | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
| ||
| ||
| Search translators |
Each unnamed parameter must follow this syntax; all spaces and blank ones will be removed, but not empty codes:
<langcode>,<langcode>,...,<langcode>-<langcode>,<langcode>,...,<langcode>.
ISO 639-1 codes will be converted to ISO 639-3 in categories and links. A list of ISO 639 codes can be found at en:ISO 639 and pages linked from there.
This template will also categorize any pages transclude it into corresponding categories. For example, {{Translator|eng-fra}} adds Translators eng-fra, {{Translator|eng,ita-fra,deu}} adds Translators eng-fra, Translators eng-deu, Translators ita-fra, Translators ita-deu and so on.
The plain parameter
edit
For use in {{Babel}}, there is a |plain= parameter which will cause {{Translate}} to output a plain, simple userbox. For example, {{Translator|spa-jpn}} outputs:
 | This translator translates from Spanish to Japanese. |
Category suppression
edit|skipcat= or |nocat= can be used to suppress all categories. If you only want to suppress categories associated to a specific userbox, use nocatindex or skipcatindex. Note that empty parameters also count: {{Translator||eng-fra|nocat1=1}} will still add Translators eng-fra.
