Note: This is likely not quicker than wikicode-only alternatives such as {} and {}, because it transcludes the data template from Lua and converts it to a Lua table using the above function, picks the wanted parameter name, and returns it to wikicode, whereas other templates perform two simple non-Lua transclusions to get, in most cases, the ...

The module itself must return a Lua table of values. A Lua table is expressed as a list of values separated by commas, within curly braces. When the module is called by #invoke, the function it names (the first argument after |) is looked for in that table. That function, in turn, is expected to return something that can be represented as a string.

parameter name what it does delimiter: string to delimit multiple values when given. default to colon ( : ). normally you do not want to touch this, it's provided for the off-chance you'll want to use colon as part of one of the parameters.
A name in Lua is either an access of a local variable or a table lookup. [3] math.floor is a table lookup (of the string "floor") in the (global) math table, for example. Table lookups are slower, at runtime, than local variable lookups. Table lookups in tables such as the args table with its "specialness" are a lot slower.

The C API also provides some special tables, located at various "pseudo-indices" in the Lua stack. At LUA_GLOBALSINDEX prior to Lua 5.2 [21] is the globals table, _G from within Lua, which is the main namespace. There is also a registry located at LUA_REGISTRYINDEX where C programs can store Lua values for later retrieval.
