'''<nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{lcfirst:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki>''' is a template usually used to indicate to readers that an external link is in a {{
#ifeq: {{str rightc|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|4}} | icon
| foreign language ({{#invoke:Lang|name_from_code|{{lcfirst:{{str crop|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|5}}}}|link=yes}}{{
#if: {{{cat-lang|}}}
|  or [[{{{cat-lang}}} language|{{{cat-lang}}}]]
}});
| foreign language;
}} no parameters are needed.
It should generally be placed after the external link, although this is not set in stone. For more information, see [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links)#Non-English-language sites|the Manual of Style]].
The template uses the {{tlxb|Link language|{{
#ifeq: {{str rightc|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|4}} | icon
| {{lcfirst:{{str crop|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|5}}}}
| xx
}}}} format, but is shortened by simply having the name <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{
#ifeq: {{str rightc|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|4}} | icon
| {{lcfirst:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}
| xx icon
}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>, where <code>{{
#ifeq: {{str rightc|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|4}} | icon
| {{lcfirst:{{str crop|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|5}}}}
| xx
}}</code> represents the {{
#ifeq:{{str len|{{str crop|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|5}}}}|2

}}{{
#ifeq:{{str len|{{str crop|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|5}}}}|3
| [[ISO 639-2]] or [[ISO 639-3]]
}} language code. Please be aware that [[language code]]s do not always coincide with<!-- /are not always the same as --> [[country code]]s (see the list of [[ISO 3166-1]] codes).
For citations, use the {{para|language}} parameter of the various citation templates: {{tlx|cite web}}, {{tlx|cite news}}, {{tlx|cite journal}}, etc.

Logged in users can change the appearance of the template's output using [[CSS]] with the <code>languageicon</code> class. For example, edit [[Special:MyPage/common.css]] and add {{code|lang=css|span.languageicon { font-weight: bold; }<nowiki />}}. That would result in {{tld|{{
