While Lua allows the true and false boolean values, wikicode templates can only express boolean values through strings such as "yes", "no", etc. This module processes these kinds of strings and turns them into boolean input for Lua to process. It also returns nil values as nil, to allow for distinctions between nil and false. The module also ...
If it isn't a table, it's a string, a number, a boolean, a function, or a nil. Libraries are tables. string.gmatch is the "gmatch" entry in the table named by the global variable string. Arguments that you receive from MediaWiki are tables. But they're a bit special. Arrays are tables that follow a specific convention.

Lua patterns deliberately lack the most complex regular expression constructs (to avoid bloating the Lua code base), where many other computer languages or libraries use a more complete set. Lua patterns are not even a subset of regular expressions, as there are also discrepancies, like Lua using the escape character % instead of \, , and ...

Unlike in wikicode, Lua does not use functions like #ifexpr and #expr.Add the Lua operators and functions straight into your module. See mw:Help:Calculation for details on how #expr and mw. ext.
The functioncall is written as some.function.name(a,b,c) where some.function.name means something in the Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual and a,b,c are the arbitrary variable names you've chosen.
This module is subject to page protection.It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, 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.
