*Next add one of the following codes for each language you speak or understand, separated by '''|''' (another vertical bar), where '''xx''' should be replaced by the Wikipedia code for that language. The general usage of each code level is as follows (note that not all languages have all levels, but you may create the template you are missing); the numbering is approximately analogous to the [[Interagency Language Roundtable scale|ILR scale]], though this is coincidental:

**'''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.
***'''Notey:''' Ta ymmoddee sleih smooinaghtyn nagh lhisagh keim-0 ve ayn.
***'''Note:''' Consensus has been determined at [[Wikipedia:User categories for discussion]] that 0-level user categories should not exist.

**'''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.
