From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
sgn | These users use a sign language. |
There are five templates for different levels of competence in a sign language:
- {{User sgn}} for those who have a sign language as their native, primary or preferred language.
- {{User sgn-3}} for those who can use a sign language at an advanced level.
- {{User sgn-2}} for those with an intermediate knowledge of a sign language.
- {{User sgn-1}} for those with a basic knowledge of a sign language (such as the alphabet).
- {{User sgn-0}} for those who do not speak a sign language or understand it with considerable difficulty.

[edit] How to use these templates
[edit] Not inside Babel template
On your homepage, type {{User sgn-X|Y}}
, substituting X for your level of competence and Y for the name of the language.
[edit] Inside Babel template
There are two options for sign language users using the Babel template:
- American Sign Language users can use separate templates just like spoken languages, such as
{{User ASL-1}}
, which will be automatically converted into{{User sgn-x|ASL}}
templates. For example, a native speaker of English who is intermediate in ASL may type{{Babel-2|en|ASL-2}}
. New templates are simple to make for other sign languages — just follow the format of the ASL templates. - Otherwise one extra step is needed, because of the language parameter. First use the subst keyword to substitute the template code into your homepage. For example, type:
{{Subst:Babel-3|hi|en-3|sgn-2}}
. Then after saving the page, click "edit this page" again, and add the language parameter to the "User sgn" template. For example, change{{User sgn-2}}
to{{User sgn-2|French Sign Language}}
.
