This template uses Lua:

Module:Main list

This template is used to make summary style explicit. It looks like this:

It is used in sections for which there is also a separate more comprehensive list article on the subject.

Usage[muda l codesc]

Basic usage

{{Main list|article}}

With a topic

{{Main list|article 1|article 2}}

All parameters

{{Main list|article 1|article 2|category=no}}

Parameters[muda l codesc]

This template accepts the following parameters:

1 - the page to link to (required). Categories and files are automatically escaped with the colon trick, and links to sections are automatically formatted as page § section, rather than the MediaWiki default of page#section.
2 - a second page (optional). Same implications as the first parameter apply.
category - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category (Category:Hatnote templates with errors). This only has an effect if the first positional parameter (the page to link to) is omitted.

Errors[muda l codesc]

If no page name is supplied, the template will output the following message:

Error: no page name specified (help).

If you see this error message, it is for one of three reasons:

No parameters were specified (the template code was {{Main list}}). Please use {{Main list|page}} instead.
The page name was specified, but it contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code {{Main list|2+2=4}} will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explicitly by using 1= before the page name, like this: {{Main list|1=2+2=4}}.
You tried to access Module:Main list directly by using {{#invoke:Main list|mainList|text}}. Use of #invoke in this way has been disabled for performance reasons. Please use {{Main list|text}} instead.

If you see this error message and are unsure of what to do, please post a message on the help desk, and someone should be able to help you.

Pages that contain this error message are tracked in Category:Hatnote templates with errors.

For cases where the present context provides no short list to which this template "a more comprehensive list" wording could refer, see the template {{Main listing}}, which is just a pointer to the list article.
