'''Interlanguage links''' are links from a Wikipedia article in one language to a corresponding page in another language. These links are accessible through the language dropdown menu, which appears as: {{border|[[File:OOjs UI icon language-ltr-progressive.svg|20px|class=s kin-invert]] {{color|#3568CD|'''''XX'' languages'''}}}}, in the upper right corner of the page when using the default [[Wikipedia:Vector 2022|Vector 2022]] skin. In other skins, it can be found in the "Languages" section of the page's left [[sidebar (computing)|sidebar]].<ref>Skins can be changed in your [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|Special:Preferences § Appearance]].</ref>

Less commonly, interlanguage links can be used as inline links in the text of a Wikipedia page using the {{tlg|Interlanguage link}} template.

These two types of links are created and handled differently.
