I'm not sure of what do you mean by "language switch". Do you mean "adding, removing or changing a link to a version of the article in another language"?
If that's what you mean, then you should indeed search for [[code:title]], and note that the 'code' part is one of the 270 or so language codes that we use. Wikis in new languages are opened every few weeks, so the list of codes is growing. You can find a full and reasonably current list here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wikipedias You should also speak to some of the bot operators, because they already have code that does such things.
