Put a Babel template on your user page, to control the language of labels and descriptions which Wikidata shows by default.

If you speak (specifically if you read and write) only in English, use:

{{#babel:en}}

If you speak more than one language, say, French natively, but also English, use:

{{#babel:fr|en-5}}

(note the hyphen), where "fr" is the ISO 639-1, ISO 639-2 or ISO 639-3 code for your language, and "5" indicates your level of proficiency on a scale of 1-5 (or "N" for another native language).

You can add more languages, thus:

{{#babel:fr|en-5|de-N|ja-4|it-1|id-3|ru-2|nys-0}}

Using a value of zero will force the display of labels and descriptions in that language, even if you don't speak it (maybe you're learning it).

Next, you can add details of the other projects on which you are active:

{{#babel:fr|en-5|de-N|ja-4|it-1|id-3|ru-2|nys-0 |en.wikipedia}}

Finally, add any elevated roles on those projects:

{{#babel:fr|en-5|de-N|ja-4|it-1|id-3|ru-2|nys-0|en.wikipedia|Wikispecies admin}}

This version is shown above. Note that the languages are shown in the order in which you listed them.
