Usage
{{lang|language|text}}
Intended use: to make sure that Japanese and Chinese characters will display correctly. Due to the so-called Han unification, several Japanese and Chinese characters that look slightly different from one another but convey the same meaning are assigned the same point in Unicode, and so HTML language tags must be used to ensure that they display correctly.
"language" should be replaced with ja for Japanese, zh-Hans for Simplified Chinese, and zh-Hant for Traditional Chinese. See w3schools' article for language codes for other languages.
This template is already used by default in the {{Names}} and {{Flavor Text}} templates and so does not need to be used there.
Examples:
{{lang|ja|刃}}becomes 刃.{{lang|zh-Hans|刃}}becomes 刃.{{lang|zh-Hant|刃}}becomes 刃.{{lang|ja|令}}becomes 令.{{lang|zh-Hans|令}}becomes 令.{{lang|zh-Hant|令}}becomes 令.
To use with {{hover}}, use the {{hoverlang}} template.
This template could possibly be used for all non-English text to assist with screenreaders, as on Wikipedia, but this is not necessary
