Not everyone here speaks/writes the same language. To help with communication, please categorize yourselves by language categories on your user page. Example language groups: en for English, de for German, and so on. Additionally, users can specify their level of proficiency in the language:


 * 0 stands for no knowledge. It should only be used when knowledge might be expected.
 * 1 stands for basic knowledge: the ability to understand and answer simple questions in the language.
 * 2 stands for intermediate knowledge.
 * 3 stands for advanced or fluent knowledge: the ability to correct spelling and grammar errors in the language.
 * 4 (where it exists) stands for near-native/very fluent ability.

So de-1 identifies a user with basic skills in German, and en-3 identifies a user with advanced skills in English. The two-letter language codes are the same codes described in ISO 639. (See the complete list of language Wikipedias available).
