සැකිල්ල:label data documentation

The following documentation is generated by {{label data documentation}}.^[edit]

Each data module defines and exports a table called labels containing the data associated with the actual labels. The key is the label while the value is a table containing information on the label. The following is a basic example:

labels["Argentina"] = {
	aliases = {"Argentinian"},
	Wikipedia = true,
	regional_categories = "Argentinian",
}

This defines a label Argentina with an alias Argentinian, links the label to the Wikipedia article Argentina, and causes uses of the label with {{lb}} or {{tlb}} to categorize into Argentinian lang where lang is the language of the label.

The following is a more complex example, for use in Module:labels/data/lang/en:

labels["British"] = {
	region = "Great Britain",
	addl = "Not to be confused with [[:Category:British English forms|British spellings]], a spelling system used in some English-speaking countries of the world.",
	aliases = {"Britain", "Great Britain"},
	Wikipedia = "British English",
	regional_categories = true,
	parent = "Europe,Commonwealth",
	country = "the United Kingdom",
}

This defines a label British with two aliases Britain and Great Britain, all of which display as British and link to the Wikipedia article British English. Use with {{lb}} or {{tlb}} categorize into British English. The fields region, addl, parent and country control the appearance of the category text for the category British English.

The following table specifies the basic fields. See the documentation of Module:labels/data for more detailed information.

Field	Example	Description
`aliases`	`{"Britain", "Great Britain"`}	List of aliases for the label.
`display`	`"Taraškievica orthography"` or `"[[alcoholic#Adjective\|alcoholic]] [[beverage]]s"`	How the label displays (if different from the label itself).
`Wikipedia`	`"Shopi#Dialects"` or `true` or `{"Goan Portuguese", "Portuguese India"`}	Wikipedia article to link to, or `true` if the article is named the same as the (canonical form of the) label. Multiple articles can be provided; only the first is used for linking the label, but all are displayed on the label's category page.
`Wiktionary`	`"Appendix:Swedish verbs"`	Wiktionary article to link to, or `true` if the anchor is named the same as the (canonical form of the) label.
`Wikidata`	`"Q2675834"` or `{"Q98095139", "Q9668261"`}	Wikidata ID or ID's identifying one or more Wikipedia articles to link to. Multiple ID's can be provided; only the first associated article is used for linking the label, but all are displayed on the label's category page.
`glossary`	`"tashif"`	The anchor in Appendix:Glossary to link to, or `true` if the anchor is named the same as the (canonical form of the) label.
`langs`	`{"la", "lad", "nrf", "vi", "yi"`}	Language restriction for this label, for labels not occurring in a language-specific module. The label will only be recognized for the specified language code(s).

The following table specifies the fields used to control how the label categorizes when used with {{lb}} or {{tlb}}.

Field	Example	Description
`plain_categories`	`"Multicultural Toronto English"` or `true` or `{"American English forms", "Oxford spellings"`}	Category or categories to add the page to, when `{{lb}}` or `{{tlb}}` are used; use `true` if the category is the same as the (canonical form of the) label.
`regional_categories`	`"Algerian"` or `true` or `{"Devonian", "Somerset"`}	Like `plain_categories` but the language name is appended to the specified value(s).
`pos_categories`	`"pluralia tantum"` or `true` or `{"transitive verbs", "intransitive verbs"`}	Like `plain_categories` but the language name is prepended to the specified value(s).
`topical_categories`	`"Football (American)"` or `true` or `{"Software engineering", "Programming"`}	Like `plain_categories` but the language code is prepended to the capitalized specified value(s).
`sense_categories`	`"dated"` or `true` or `{"obsolete", "historical"`}	Categorizes into `lang terms with category senses` (when using `{{lb}}`) or `lang category terms` (when using `{{tlb}}`).

The following table specifies the fields used to control the appearance of the category page (specified using plain_categories or regional_categories) for labels that specify lects (i.e. language varieties).

Field	Example	Description
`region`	`"the [[United States]]"` or `"the tri-state region of <country>"` or `"[[Cajun]]s in {{w\|Acadiana\|Southern Louisiana}}"`	Region where the lect specified by the label is used; or the users of the lect, if `{{{1}}}` is given. Defaults to the label. The spec `<country>` is replaced by the value(s) specified using the `country` field; see below.
`the`	`true`	Causes the default value for `region` to have the word the prepended (e.g. for a label such as `Philippines` or `Channel Islands`).
`prep`	`"by"`	Preposition used in the category description, after Terms or senses in `lang` as spoken, in place of in.
`verb`	`"originally spoken"` or `"used"`	Verb used in the category description, after Terms or senses in `lang` as, in place of spoken.
`def`	`"[[Lunfardo]], a Spanish [[argot]] with origins in [[Buenos Aires]]"`	Definition text used in the category description, after Terms or senses in. Defaults to `lang as spoken in region`, where `lang` is the language and `region` is the value of the `region` field.
`fulldef`	`"Anglo-Indian terms or senses in English as used formerly by Britishers in {{w\|British India}}"`	Definition text used in the category description. Defaults to `Terms or senses in lang as spoken in region`; see the `def` field.
`addl`	`"Not to be confused with the {{catlink\|Bavarian language}}."`	Additional text to display on the label's category page.
`parent`	`"New England"` or `true` or `"Southern US,Southwestern US"`	Parent label(s). The category corresponding to the label will have the category or categories of the parent label(s) as its parent(s). If `true`, the parent will be `Regional lang`, or `Varieties of lang` if `{{{1}}}` is given.
`noreg`	`true`	Specify that this lect is non-regional (not a topolect). Used e.g. with chronolects such as Early Modern English and sociolects such as Katharevousa. Controls the default parent when `{{{1}}}` is used.
`othercat`	`"en:Universities"` or `"British slang,English cant,English gay slang"`	Additional category or categories to add the label's category page to. Useful especially for categories not associated with a label.
`country`	`"France"` or `"Belgium,the [[Netherlands]],Germany"`	Country or countries where this label's lect is spoken. Used in two ways: (1) to add the label's category to pages such as Category:Languages of France or Category:Languages of the Netherlands; (2) to substitute into the `<country>` spec in the description.

The following table specifies the remaining fields, used mostly to control how the label displays.

Field	Example	Description
`deprecated`	`true`	Indicate that this label is deprecated (should not be used). Such labels display with the `deprecated-label` CSS class and cause the page to be added to Category:Entries with deprecated labels.
`deprecated_aliases`	`{"dual"`}	Specify deprecated aliases of the given label (i.e. aliases that should not be used). Usage of such aliases causes the label to display with the `deprecated-label` CSS class and the page to be added to Category:Entries with deprecated labels.
`track`	`true`	Track all usages of this label (including any aliases) at a page named `Wiktionary:Tracking/labels/label/label` where `label` is the canonical label (click on "See whether another page links to [this page]"), and also at a page named `Wiktionary:Tracking/labels/label/label/code`, where `code` is the language code specified in `\|1=`.
`special_display`	`[[Classical <canonical_name>]]`	Like `display` but `<canonical_name>` is replaced with the canonical language name.
`omit_preComma`	`true`	Don't display a comma before the label, for labels like `and`, `by`, `_` and `;`.
`omit_postComma`	`true`	Don't display a comma after the label, for labels like `and`, `by`, `_`, `;` and `chiefly`.
`omit_preSpace`	`true`	Don't display a space before the label, for labels like `;` and `:`.
`omit_postSpace`	`true`	Don't display a comma after the label, for labels like `-` (hyphen), `–` (en-dash) and `—` (em-dash).

At the end of the data module, the labels table should be returned using the following code:

return require("Module:labels").finalize_data(labels)
