Line 1:
* <b id="csdoc_language">language</b>: The language in which the source is written. Displays in parentheses with "in" before the language name or names. Use the full language name or the proper language code ([[Template:Citation Style documentation/language/doc|list of supported codes / names]]). When the source uses more than one language, list them individually, separated by commas, e.g. {{para|language|French, German}} or {{para|language|fr, de}}. The use of language names or language codes recognized by Wikimedia adds the page to the appropriate subcategory of {{cl|CS1 foreign language sources}}. Do not use templates or wikilinks. When the language is "English" (or "en"), no language is displayed in the citation. Adding this parameter for English-language sources is neither encouraged nor discouraged. However, if someone has already added it, then removing it would be a [[Wikipedia:Cosmetic edit|cosmetic edit]], which is discouraged. When two or more languages are listed, do not include "and" before the last language ("and" is inserted automatically by the template). Aliases: '''lang'''
