This template is used on 3000000+ pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes should first be tested in this template's /sandbox or/testcases subpage, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |

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. |
This page contains various functions and tables that are common to multiple of the various modules that make up Module:Citation/CS1.
These files comprise the module support for cs1|2 citation templates:
local u = {}
local z = {
error_categories = {}; -- for categorizing citations that contain errors
error_ids = {};
message_tail = {};
maintenance_cats = {}; -- for categorizing citations that aren't erroneous per se, but could use a little work
properties_cats = {}; -- for categorizing citations based on certain properties, language of source for instance
};

This function is used by select_one() to determine if one of a list of alias parameters is in the argument list
provided by the template.
Input:
args – pointer to the arguments table from calling template
alias – one of the list of possible aliases in the aliases lists from Module:Citation/CS1/Configuration
index – for enumerated parameters, identifies which one
enumerated – true/false flag used choose how enumerated aliases are examined
value – value associated with an alias that has previously been selected; nil if not yet selected
selected – the alias that has previously been selected; nil if not yet selected
error_list – list of aliases that are duplicates of the alias already selected
Returns:
value – value associated with alias we selected or that was previously selected or nil if an alias not yet selected
selected – the alias we selected or the alias that was previously selected or nil if an alias not yet selected

Protects a string that will be wrapped in wiki italic markup '' ... ''
Note: We cannot use <i> for italics, as the expected behavior for italics specified by ''...'' in the title is that
they will be inverted (i.e. unitalicized) in the resulting references. In addition, <i> and '' tend to interact
poorly under Mediawiki's HTML tidy.

this function is similar to but separate from wrap_msg().

Chooses one matching parameter from a list of parameters to consider. The list of parameters to consider is just
names. For parameters that may be enumerated, the position of the numerator in the parameter name is identified
by the '#' so |author-last1= and |author1-last= are represented as 'author-last#' and 'author#-last'.
Because enumerated parameter |<param>1= is an alias of |<param>= we must test for both possibilities.
Generates an error if more than one match is present.
