This template gives a rank of Wikipedia by the number of articles.

Usage

Forward

{{Wikipedia rank by size|1}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.
{{Wikipedia rank by size|2}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.
{{Wikipedia rank by size|3}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.
{{Wikipedia rank by size|4}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.
{{Wikipedia rank by size|5}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.
{{Wikipedia rank by size|6}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.
{{Wikipedia rank by size|7}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.

Reverse

{{Wikipedia rank by size|fr}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.
{{Wikipedia rank by size|zh}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/rank' not found.

Other projects

By default it is for Wikipedia. For the sister projects add a second argument:

{{Wikipedia rank by size|1|wikiquote}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/other' not found.
{{Wikipedia rank by size|2|wikiquote}} → Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/other' not found.

Plain language

To display in plain language:

{{Wikipedia rank by size/WP|2}} → [[error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-error"id="mw-scribunto-error-11">luaerrorinpackage.luaatline80:module'module:numberof/rank'notfound. not recognized Wikipedia|error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-error"id="mw-scribunto-error-12">luaerrorinpackage.luaatline80:module'module:numberof/rank'notfound. not recognized]]

This is useful when building dynamic ordered lists. For example:

  1. {{Wikipedia rank by size/WP|1}} {{NUMBEROF|articles|{{Wikipedia rank by size|1}}|N}}
  2. {{Wikipedia rank by size/WP|2}} {{NUMBEROF|articles|{{Wikipedia rank by size|2}}|N}}

Produces:

  1. [[error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-error"id="mw-scribunto-error-13">luaerrorinpackage.luaatline80:module'module:numberof/rank'notfound. not recognized Wikipedia|error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-error"id="mw-scribunto-error-14">luaerrorinpackage.luaatline80:module'module:numberof/rank'notfound. not recognized]] Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/data' not found.
  2. [[error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-error"id="mw-scribunto-error-17">luaerrorinpackage.luaatline80:module'module:numberof/rank'notfound. not recognized Wikipedia|error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-error"id="mw-scribunto-error-18">luaerrorinpackage.luaatline80:module'module:numberof/rank'notfound. not recognized]] Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:NUMBEROF/data' not found.

For sites other than Wikipedia (eg. Wikiquote) use this method:

  1. [[Wikiquote|{{Mw lang|{{Wikipedia rank by size|2|wikiquote}}}}]]

Produces:

  1. error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-error"id="mw-scribunto-error-21">luaerrorinpackage.luaatline80:module'module:numberof/other'notfound. not recognized
