This module is rated as pre-alpha. It is unfinished, and may or may not be in active development. It should not be used from article namespace pages. Modules remain pre-alpha until the original editor (or someone who takes one over if it is abandoned for some time) is satisfied with the basic structure.

Aim edit

This aim of this module is to develop routines to either work with or replace parts of the {{Creator}} template extensively used on Commons.

It is currently at a very early stage of inital development and experimentation.

local wikidata = require('Module:Wikidata')
