Modul:Other uses
This module is subject to page protection. It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, and/or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing. |
This module produces an "other uses" hatnote for linking to disambiguation pages. It implements the {{other uses}} template.
Usage from wikitext
[rediger kilde]otheruses()
[rediger kilde]The otheruses()
function directly implements {{other uses}} and probably shouldn't be used anywhere else.
otherX()
[rediger kilde]The otherX()
function allows direct implementation of templates that differ from {{other uses}} in only phrasing. For example, where {{other uses}} is phrased with "other uses", {{other places}} is phrased with "other places with the same name" and can be implemented using otherX()
, which takes the custom phrasing as its parameter at the module invocation. {{other places}} in particular could be implemented with this wikitext:
{{#invoke:other uses|otherX|places with the same name}}
Note that the leading "other" is automatically supplied; if a template would not use this phrasing, it should not use otherX()
.
Usage from Lua
[rediger kilde]To use this module from Lua, first load the module:
local mOtheruses = require('Module:Other uses')
The module functions can then be used through the _otheruses()
function:
mOtheruses._otheruses(args, options)
Parameters of _otheruses()
[rediger kilde]- args
- A table containing strings of link text, without brackets. For example,
{"PAGE1", "PAGE2#SECTION", "PAGE3|LABEL"}
. Make sure that there are no gaps or nil values, as that can confuse themw.text.listToText()
function the module uses. If in doubt, usecompressSparseArray()
from Module:TableTools. This may be empty or nil. - options
- A table containing a number of optional named values; you must supply at least one of
options.defaultPage
oroptions.title
; in most cases setting the latter tomw.title.getCurrentTitle().prefixedText
is advisable. The following options are supported:defaultPage
: String; completely overrides the linked page when no arguments are suppliedtitle
: String; sets the title used before the "(disambiguation)" suffix.disambiguator
: String; replaces "disambiguation" in the suffixotherText
: String; replaces "uses" in "other uses"
