This template is used on approximately 2,600 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see Wikipedia:COinS.

Shortcut

{{ko/autoTemplate:Ko/auto}}

This template uses Lua:

Module:Korean (sandbox)

Purpose

This template is designed to organize Korean-language text and romanizations for use within article prose. It also wraps text in {{Lang}} and {{Transliteration}} as needed (reasoning).

This template is designed to eventually replace its predecessor and parent {{Korean}}. It is capable of doing everything its predecessor did (in mostly identical user-facing syntax) and also has new features.

New features

Semi-automatic romanization (both RR and MR) using Module:Ko-translit
Can change the display order of terms
Can add both English and Korean IPA pronunciations
Can have one term be separated from the others by parentheses
Can add individual references to Hangul, Hanja, English IPA, Korean IPA, or literal translations
Removed parameter |context=, which was already deprecated

Parameters

|hangul=: Required. Hangul text, possibly with symbols to adjust automatic romanization. Symbols won't appear when the Hangul is displayed.
|hangulref=: Optional. Reference or footnote for Hangul.
|hanja=: Optional. Hanja text.
|hanjaref=: Optional. Reference or footnote for Hanja. See MOS:HANJAREF; avoid using Chinese-language sources for this.
|rr=: Optional, default no. Set it to yes to show semi-automatic Revised Romanization. The romanization can/may need to be altered using symbols that you should place in the Hangul.
|mr=: Optional, default no. Set it to yes to show semi-automatic McCune–Reischauer. Can/may need to be adjusted with symbols in Hangul.
|lit=: Optional. English translation of term.
|litref=: Optional. Reference for translation.
|en_ipa=: Optional. IPA pronunciation for English term. Don't have slashes or square brackets around it.
|en_iparef=: Optional. Reference for English IPA.
|ko_ipa=: Optional. IPA for Korean term. Don't have slashes or square brackets around it.
|ko_iparef=: Optional. Reference for Korean IPA.
|labels=: Optional, default yes. Set it to no to hide language and IPA labels. Especially useful when labels are repeated or obvious.
|links=: Optional, default yes. Set it to no to turn off links, especially when they are repeats of previous links.
|namemode=: Optional, default no. Set it to yes to romanize hangul input as if it's a person's name. Equivalent to adding % to the beginning of hangul.
This parameter is mostly appropriate for when hangul only contains a typical person's name (1 surname character). If the name is atypical or hangul contains other text besides a name, consider not using this parameter and instead inserting symbols manually into hangul.
|capitalize=: Optional, default no. Set it to yes to capitalize romanizations of hangul. Equivalent to adding ^ to the beginning of hangul.
|order=: Optional. String that modifies what order to show terms in. Default ordering: ehzrmkl (see #Ordering for more info).
|out=: Optional, default no. Set to yes to put everything after the first term in parentheses.
|en_out=: Optional, default no. Shortcut param; if you set this to yes, it's equivalent to setting out=yes and order=lehzrmk. You can still set an order if you wish, but l must come first.

Ordering

Terms can be reordered by giving a string of letters. Each letter represents a term. References are assumed to always follow just after the relevant term.


Letter	Term
`e`	English IPA
`h`	Hangul
`z`	Hanja
`r`	Revised Romanization
`m`	McCune–Reischauer
`k`	Korean IPA
`l`	Literal English translation

By default, if no |order= is given, the template uses one of these two orderings:

In most cases, it uses ehzrmkl
- en_ipa[en_ipa]; hangul[hangulref]; hanja[hanjaref]; rr; mr; ko_ipa[ko_iparef]; lit[litref]
If en_out=yes, it uses lehzrmk
- lit[litref] (en_ipa[en_iparef]; hangul[hangulref]; hanja[hanjaref]; rr; mr; ko_ipa[ko_iparef])

The above default orderings attempt to abide by the ordering specified in MOS:KO-LEAD.

If you do provide your own ordering, we recommend you have letters for all parameters that you want to be displayed. There are several possible several optional letters (k and l default to being placed at end if not provided, and e either first or second depending on en_out), but it's clearer to others if you just show all letters you use.
