[[Module:Separated entries]] serves as a template front-end to <code>[[mw:Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.text.listToText|mw.text.listToText]]</code>. It takes [[Variadic function|any number]] of positional parameters and [[Concatenation|pieces them together]] with {{Para|separator}}. {{Para|conjunction}} can be optionally defined if a different separator is desired between the last and second last items. The starting positional parameter can be specified using {{Para|start}}. Leading and trailing whitespace is stripped.

Template:High-use

Usage

Module:Separated entries serves as a template front-end to mw.text.listToText. It takes any number of positional parameters and pieces them together with |separator=. |conjunction= can be optionally defined if a different separator is desired between the last and second last items. The starting positional parameter can be specified using |start=. Leading and trailing whitespace is stripped. To add deliberate leading and trailing whitespace, use the HTML entity &#32; for a space and &#10; for a "newline". Separated entries does not raise any errors by design.

{{#invoke:separated entries|main|separator=...}}

For more complex cases – such as selecting the parameters to list, or preprocessing them, or omitting the last parameters – Template:Mfl is available. The following two examples with “ + ” as delimiter and “ ... ” as conjunction produce a similar result:

  1. {{#invoke:separated entries|main|separator=&#32;+&#32;|conjunction=&#32;...&#32;}}
  2. {{#invoke:params|sequential|squeezing|trimming_values|setting|i/l| + | ... |list_values}}
