Module:Main list/doc
This is the documentation page for Module:Main list
This module produces a "For a more comprehensive list, see [...]" link. It implements the {{main list}} template.
Use from wikitext
This module cannot be used directly from #invoke. Instead, it can only be used through the {{main list}} template. Please see the template page for documentation.
Use from other Lua modules
Load the module:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> local mMainList = require('Module:Main list') </syntaxhighlight>
You can then use the _mainList function like this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> mMainList._mainList (page1, page2) </syntaxhighlight>
The page1 variable is the page to be linked to, and is required. The page name can include a section link if desired. If the page includes a section link, it is automatically formatted as page § section, rather than the MediaWiki default of page#section.
The page2 variable is optional; it is a second page link.
Example 1
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> mMainList._mainList ('Wikipedia:Hatnote#Hatnote templates') </syntaxhighlight> Produces:
<div class="hatnote">For a more comprehensive list, see [[Wikipedia:Hatnote#Hatnote templates|Wikipedia:Hatnote § Hatnote templates]].</div>
