Sort key

Please could any of the admins edit this template to allow for a "ninth" optional sort key parameter? I believe we'd have to add the code in red for each "Category:Works in" (not sure):

[[Category:Works in {{{5}}}|{{{9|{{PAGENAME}}}}}]]

We'd use it like this:

{{Language|Galician|9=Que pasa o redor de min}}

Thanks! -- Carlos^Talk 13:59, 30 April 2008 (PDT)

Hi Carlos. I see you've already noticed how I made Template:Lang have the requested property already - I should have done the same for the present template (since Lang has always been intended as a shorthand for Language). At the time I changed the other template, I was very busy and forgot to change this one to match ... it has beed done, now. -- Chuck_talk Giffen_♫ 14:09, 30 April 2008 (PDT)

Hi Chuck! Wow, what a coincidence! Can you believe I hadn't seen yet your changes to Template:Lang! We even thought of the same parameter number, LOL! I made the suggestion because right now I am editing ¿Qué pasa ó redor de min? (Adrian Cuello) and noticed the need of sort keys. Thanks for the ultra fast reply.

Categories Works in language

When this template is applied to a work page, it categorizes the page in categories "Works in language", one for each of the languages specified in the template. I propose that these categories be hidden in the bottom of the work page (by just adding HIDDENCAT to the template), because these categories are already linked to from the names of the languages themselves (Language: English). Any objection? —Carlos [[[:Template:Carlos]] ] 19:12, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
