template:wikivar

 * The template has been expanded with the new "magic words" and examples.
 * It contains examples mentioned at WiktionaryZ T: Collation by a certain locale and new magic words.
 * 1) capitalization / decapitalization (errors) can be seen at is:template:wikivar
 * 2) LTR / RTL portability is tested at yi:template:wikivar
 * from user talk:Gangleri: "Where is there more documentation on this template? Are all these uses sanctioned by the developers, or are large portions likely to be broken?  This is pretty amazing stuff."
 * I did not find much documentation about many "magic words". This is why all links to have been added.
 * I used intuitive syntax. Please take a look at is:template:wikivar to find out what works and what does not (transclusion of special pages is activated for some special pages only; capitalization / decapitalization neads fixing).

(Sannab) diacritics/en (and the corresponding templates in other languages) should contain all non basic Latin with characters code less then hex 7F of the "content language" (from "academic" point of view; loaned characters should probably be in special characters/en). the template is used to test   in the "content language" (this makes only sense if diacritics/en starts with a upper case character)" 04119 shows an example where linktrail is broken depending on the first character after a link the template is used to test MediaWiki:Linktrail in the "content language" 04119 shows an example where linktrail is broken depending on the first character after a link the template is used to test MediaWiki:Linktrail in the "content language"
 * "template:wikivar" tests capitalization / decapitalization and MediaWiki:Linktrail functionality and requires
 * 1) template:alphabet upper case/en
 * 1) template:alphabet lower case/en
 * 1) template:diacritics/en
 * 1) template:special characters/en
 * 1) template:alphabet sort order/en – tbd (tbd. to be defined) – for categories the definition of "category character headers" will be required; such headers can contain multiple characters; the syntax will probably require separator(s); line by line specification would facilitate RTL editing
 * 2) template:alphabet sort order (extended)/en – tbd – for "loaned" characters (loan words, surnames etc.)
 * 3) template:numbers/en
 * "en" should be substituted with the language code for the content language.
 * Please note that the template should start with lower case characters at Wiktionaries. Gangleri | w: Th | T 13:50, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

RFDO discussion: November–December 2014
No transclusions, in content namespaces or elsewhere, and whatever its purpose is supposed to be, I think pages like mw:Help:Magic words and Special:Version fulfil it better. — Keφr 16:00, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
