====== Feature summary:
On wikis with Translate extension installed, it would be helpful if the already "upgraded" languages tag built into Translate (`<languages />`) could double as a replacement for `{{languages}}` template on pages which do not use Translate extension, but have a similar language subpage setup (which is already required for most uses of `{{languages}}`.
====== Use cases:
Pages or categories which have not (or for whatever reason cannot be) setup for use with Translate:
* https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2005_city
* https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikimania/Translations
* https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Resolutions/Translations (or any `/Translations` category)
* https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Archive:Access_to_nonpublic_data_policy
====== Benefits:
There are already efforts underway on Meta-Wiki to reduce usage of `{{languages}}`:
* https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Languages/doc
* https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Languages
As noted in those discussion, ongoing maintenance of this template is a burden, and simply switching all pages to usage of Translate extension does not solve all use cases.
====== Notes:
* Should have ability to set for a specific page as that is often necessary (examples, the `/Translations` categories).
====== Lingering questions:
* Is this doable?
