Template implementation notes
The template was implemented in January 2006 using the MediaWiki parser-functions language (which was updated in January 2008 to run with a recursive descent parser).
Changes should be made and verified in a test-version of the template copied into user-space (under "User:XXX/Template:Infobox_Bone"). Changes can be checked by editing actual articles by edit-preview (not Save) with the template-brace calls prefixed by "{{User:XXX/Template:...}}" but never saved that way.
When modifying the template or documentation ("/doc" subpage), it is often necessary to purge the template cache (using "action=purge"), such as to display modified documentation:
Running old versions of the template can be very confusing and frustrating when trying to install and verify improvements copied from test-versions of the template (so remember "action=purge").
