On Wikimedia projects, the noun '''Babel''' (an [[allusion]] to the [[Tower of Babel]]) refers to the '''user language templates''' aiding multilingual communication by making it easier to contact someone who speaks a certain language. The idea originated on the [[commons:Commons:Babel|Wikimedia Commons]] and has also been implemented on [[meta:Meta:Babel templates|Meta-Wiki]] and some of the other Wikipedias to varying extents. To participate, you can add the Babel template to your user page by following these instructions:
*Start off with
*Next add one of the following codes for each language you speak or understand, separated by
**'''xx-0''' if you cannot understand the language at all. Do not use it for every language that you don't know, but only when there is some reason why you might be expected to know it. For example, one may be of Italian descent, but does not speak the Italian language, or if one is Canadian but does not speak French. Similarly, one may usefully edit a project without speaking the language, such as adding links or images to Japanese Wikipedia without speaking Japanese.
***'''Note:''' Consensus has been determined at [[Wikipedia:User categories for discussion]] that 0-level user categories should not exist on the English Wikipedia. (Non-english-specific wikis may want them for '''en-0''', though.)
**'''xx-1''' for basic ability - enough to understand written material or simple questions in this language.
**'''xx-2''' for intermediate ability - enough for editing or discussions.
**'''xx-3''' for advanced level - though you can write in this language with no problem, some small errors might occur.
**'''xx-4''' for 'near-native' level - although it's not your first language from birth, your ability is something like that of a native speaker.
**'''xx-5''' for professional proficiency. Note that this template is currently only available for a few languages.▼
**'''xx''' (no hyphen or number) for native-born speakers who use a language every day and have a thorough grasp of it, including colloquialisms and idioms.
***'''Note:''' We don't quibble about the "native-born" part; it's the colloquialisms and idioms that matter here.
***'''Note:''' The ordering between this and '''xx-4''' isn't particularly meaningful (as befits an {{code|ol}} element).
▲**'''xx-5''' for professional proficiency. Note that this template is currently only available for a few languages.
*[[Wikipedia:Babel/Levels|Expanded definitions of these levels]] are also available.
*Then finish by adding closing braces: '''<nowiki>}}</nowiki>'''
