Intlang — interface language. It is used to get the current user's wiki interface language. This should be used for templates that can be considered part of the wiki's interface rather than content of the given page. For example translation notices {{Translate}}, deletion notice {{Delete}}. It might also have a use on categories that might not have much sense to be separated into separate language domains like categories meant only for images. Otherwise {{Language}} should be let to handle the job.
