Language Selector extension</a> (ULS) provides a flexible way to configure and deliver language settings like interface language, fonts, and input methods (keyboard mappings). This allows users to type text in different languages not directly supported by their keyboard, read content in a script for which fonts are not available locally, or customise the language in which menus are displayed. </p><p>This functionality was partially provided by <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Narayam" title="Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Narayam">Narayam</a><span style="display:none"><a href="/wiki/Extension:Narayam" title="Extension:Narayam"> </a></span> and <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:WebFonts" title="Special:MyLanguage/Extension:WebFonts">WebFonts</a><span style="display:none"><a href="/wiki/Extension:WebFonts" title="Extension:WebFonts"> </a></span> extensions <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Universal_Language_Selector/Deployment/Planning#List_of_wikis_(84)" title="Special:MyLanguage/Universal Language Selector/Deployment/Planning">on some wikis</a>. The ULS replaces those extensions and will be available in all Wikimedia projects for all users (logged-in and anonymous). More project specific details later. </p><p>The functionality provided is listed below: </p> <ul><li><b>Language settings panel.</b> Main entry point to configure language tools. It can be accessed from the interlanguage list on the sidebar, or at the personal toolbar for wikis lacking interlanguage links. <ul><li><b>User interface (UI) language adjustments.</b> Users can change the language in which the UI is provided regardless of the content language. At the moment, UI customisation is provided only for logged-in users.</li> <li><b>Font selection.</b> Web fonts are provided for non-latin scripts so that users can display content in those languages without installing local fonts. Users can select alternative fonts or decide to use their local fonts if they are available.</li> <li><b>Input method configuration.</b> Users lacking a keyboard for a particular script can still write in that script by using input mappings. Hindi users with a QWERTY keyboard can write “प” by typing “pa” when Hindi input method is enabled.</li></ul></li> <li><b>Input method contextual menu.</b> Options for switching between languages and keyboard mappings are provided next to each active input element. Users can easily combine English, International Phonetic Alphabet and Russian when writing about <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow" class="extiw" title="en:Moscow">Moscow</a> on English Wikipedia: “Moscow (/ˈmɒskaʊ/ or /ˈmɒskoʊ/; Russian: Москва, tr.
