Add a language(s) prompt to the "document" template

Feature Upgrade · Articles & templates · Created by DMFW

The document article template currently has no built in prompt for language

  Would it not be good to be able to add one or more languages to the properties of a document?  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

  I realise I can simply add the languages into the side bar manually, but having a prompt to associate language articles with documents seems like one of the more obvious attributes of a document which you might expect to be part of the standard template. Having just started to think a bit about languages in one of my worlds, it was natural to consider existing document articles and ascribe them to one or more of my newly created language articles. A nice prompt would make this easier.  

What are other uses for this feature request?

  Not to be too greedy in one request maybe, but if we could make this association, could World Anvil not also automatically add into the sidebar for the language itself "Texts", listing the texts that are known to be written in that language as a cross reference? I'm thinking about the kind of cross-link World Anvil creates automatically for characters who are past holders of a role for example.
