Module:Enumerate

Usage

This module is meant to be invoked inside of a template, since it requires the argument list of the calling template.

This module allows the enumeration of a set of parameters with a given prefix. If the prefix was notes, the parameters notes1, notes2, notes3, and so on will be enumerated in a unordered list until it sees the first null parameter.

The prefix is defined by the first argument passed into the invocation.

Template:X35
{{#invoke:Enumerate|main|notes}}
Any page
{{X35 | notes1 = Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. | notes2 = Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. | notes3 = Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. | notes4 = Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum. }}
Output
Module:Enumerate/doc/demo

The entries will cut off in the event that the parameters are out of order.
