Please replace the first line

&lt;noinclude&gt;

with

&lt;noinclude&gt;

to allow for optional transliteration, literal-translation and for suppression of links. The replacement is directly taken from Template:Lang-ru, for consistency's sake. — OwenBlacker (talk) 11:51, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Kazakh alphabet
The Kazakh government has implemented a transition of the Kazakh language's writing system, from Cyrillic to Latin script. The Latin script will be introduced in schools by 2023, and the transition is planned to be complete by 2031. Since Kazakh is now a digraphic language in Kazakhstan, should this template include, in this transition period, both scripts, Cyrillic and Latin, just like the Serbian language?

The Kazakh Wikipedia, for instance, allows switching from Cyrillic, Latin and Arabic script Kazakh, like other languages with more than one writing system. This template allows the display of romanized Kazakh, but now writing the landlocked contry's name as Qazaqstan is now official orthography in said contry, not just a transcription. I propose the template to show Kazakh Cyrillic and Kazakh Latin, similar to Serbian. For Kazakhstan's official name:

(Kazakh Latin: Qazaqstan Respublikasy; Kazakh Cyrillic: Қазақстан Республикасы)
