{{Module rating|general}} {{High-use}} {{Lua|Module:Arguments|Module:Delink}} == Usage == {{Mlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}}|fetch|<party>|<value>}} == Parameters == {{Transcluded section|source=Template:Political party/doc}} {{Trim|{{#section:Template:Political party/doc|Parameters}}}} ==Updating the module== The political parties contained in this module are split into alphabetised lists based on the first character of the name (for example, "Labour Party (UK)" would be under [[Module:Political party/L|/L]]). The [[Module:Political party/1|/1]] subpage is for any party that does not start with the western letters A-Z (including numbers and accented characters). Within each data submodule are two local groups: <code lang=lua>local alternate</code> and <code lang=lua>local full</code>. The alternate group is for alternate names of a party. The following is an example of alternate names for the [[Labour Party (UK)]]: <syntaxhighlight lang=lua> local alternate = { .... ["Labour and Co-operative"] = "Labour Party (UK)", ["Labour Co-operative"] = "Labour Party (UK)", ... } </syntaxhighlight> The first entry in square brackets is the alternate name, and the second entry only in quotes is the name found in the <code>full</code> group, seen below. Note that the alternate name of a party should be stored in its corresponding letter-based subpage; "Alabama Democratic Party" is listed in [[Module:Political party/A|/A]] even though it is an alternate name for "Democratic Party (US)" (which is stored in [[Module:Political party/D|/D]]). === Table values === <syntaxhighlight lang=lua> local full = { .... ["Labour Party (UK)"] = {abbrev = "Lab", color = "#E4003B", shortname = "Labour",}, ... } </syntaxhighlight> There are three values stored for each party: * The abbreviation (<code>abbrev</code>). * The color of the party (<code>color</code>), which can either be a [[hex triplet]] or a [[Web_colors#Basic colors|basic color name]]. * A shorter name for the party (<code>shortname</code>). If a name value is not stored for a party, the module will attempt to return the other "short" name variant before returning the input. Thus, if <code>abbrev</code> is stored but <code>shortname</code> is not, regardless of which value is asked for it will return the <code>abbrev</code> value. ==Requesting an addition or a change == Requests should be made at the [[Module talk:Political party|talk page]] in a new section. Copy the following line and fill in {{em|only}} the fields relevant to the party. A party name is required as is at least one other piece of information. See above for information regarding each value. * <code>["party"] = {abbrev = "", color = "", shortname = "",},</code> ==Error messages== {| class="wikitable" |+Module error messages and resolutions !Error message !Resolution |- |Lua error: bad argument #1 to 'sub' (string expected, got table). |An entry intended for the "local full" section has been placed into the "local alternate" section.
