{{Wikipedia rank by size|2|wikiquote}} → Lua error in Module:NUMBEROF/other at line 39: attempt to index field 'data' (a nil value).
Plain language
To display in plain language:
{{Wikipedia rank by size/WP|2}} → [[error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-errormw-scribunto-error-3ee44507">luaerrorinmodule:numberof/rankatline33:attempttoindexfield'data'(anilvalue). not recognized Wikipedia|error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-errormw-scribunto-error-3ee44507">luaerrorinmodule:numberof/rankatline33:attempttoindexfield'data'(anilvalue). not recognized]]
This is useful when building dynamic ordered lists. For example:
- {{Wikipedia rank by size/WP|1}} {{NUMBEROF|articles|{{Wikipedia rank by size|1}}|N}}
- {{Wikipedia rank by size/WP|2}} {{NUMBEROF|articles|{{Wikipedia rank by size|2}}|N}}
Produces:
- [[error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-errormw-scribunto-error-3ee44507">luaerrorinmodule:numberof/rankatline33:attempttoindexfield'data'(anilvalue). not recognized Wikipedia|error: language code: <strongclass="error"><spanclass="scribunto-errormw-scribunto-error-3ee44507">luaerrorinmodule:numberof/rankatline33:attempttoindexfield'data'(anilvalue). not recognized]] Lua error in Module:NUMBEROF/data at line 5: attempt to index field 'data' (a nil value).
