This template returns a localized version of a "canned" phrase that we use in the interfaces. THe phrase is in the language of the page that invokes it, so if we call the template from
<nowiki>[[</nowiki>some page<nowiki>[[</nowiki>some page]], we'd get the English version of the page, but if we call it from <nowiki>[[</nowiki>some page/es]], we would get the Spanish version of the phrase.

Here is an example:

<nowiki>{{</nowiki}}LocalizePrintf|The %1 brown %2 jumps %3 the %4 dog
|quick
|fox
|over
|lazy
}}

----

 All output phrases are found in [[Localization:All]], [[Localization:All/es]], etc.  If you need to add a new phrase, it should be added there (and translated).
