{{mbox|type=move|text=This template is only for use in File namespace, when moving files between here and Commons.}}

== Usage ==
This template was imported from [[commons:Template:en]] to handle language issues that English Wikipedia does not face. It is used on files from Commons or files preparing to be moved to Commons.

=== Examples ===
* <nowiki>{{En|English translation}}</nowiki> produces {{En|English translation|demospace=File}}
* <nowiki>{{En|1=English translation with links}}</nowiki> produces {{En|1=English translation with links|demospace=File}}
* <nowiki>{{En}}</nowiki> produces {{En|demospace=File}} (incorrect usage)

=== Transclusion error ===
If this template is used outside of File: namespace, it produces the following error:

{{En}}

To fix this error, uses of <nowiki>{{En}}</nowiki> without parameters should usually be replaced by {{tlp|in lang|en}} (or just the language name) and uses with a parameter by {{Tl|Lang-en}}. In a cite, to fix {{para|language|<nowiki>{{En}}</nowiki>}} simply remove the curly braces to leave {{Para|language|en}}.
