This Lua module is used in system messages. Changes to it can cause immediate changes to the Wikipedia user interface. To avoid major disruption, any changes should be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Please discuss 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 module generates links about a given user. It is used to generate templates such as {{user}}, {{user5}}, and {{admin}}, usually through its wrapper template {{user-multi}}.
Functions
ಸಂಪಾದಿಸಿMain
ಸಂಪಾದಿಸಿThe main
function implements the {{user-multi}} template. It generates a list of links about a given user. Please see the template page for documentation.
Single
ಸಂಪಾದಿಸಿThe single
function generates a single link about a given user. See {{user-multi/link}} for documentation.
Porting to other wikis
ಸಂಪಾದಿಸಿIf you want to use this module on another wiki, there are a few modules that you must also copy across, and some that can be used but are not essential.
Required modules:
- Module:UserLinks
- Module:UserLinks/shared
- Module:UserLinks/config
- Module:Arguments
- Module:Yesno
- Module:Toolbar
- Module:InterwikiTable
- Module:TableTools (optional in Module:UserLinks, but required by Module:Toolbar)
Optional modules:
- Module:UserLinks/extra - used for testing new link functions before they are moved to the main module.
- Module:Category handler - if an error occurs, and this module is present, pages are not categorised if they match the module's blacklist.
After you have copied over the necessary modules, you should adjust the configuration settings in Module:UserLinks/config for your language and for your wiki's setup.
