Module:Lang/utilities

This module implements templates and miscellaneous functions for templates that rely on Module:Lang but are properly not part of that module.

set_italics() (exported function) and is_cjk_code() (private to this module) – used in {{Infobox book}}

Created for use with Template:Infobox book and Template:Infobox document and perhaps others to replace hard-coded
italic markup in the call to {{lang}}.  This module attempts to make sure that {{lang}} correctly applies italic
markup according to MOS:FOREIGNITALIC.
