-- Module:Hatnote list --
-- --
-- This module produces and formats lists for use in hatnotes. In particular, --
-- it implements the for-see list, i.e. lists of "For X, see Y" statements, --
-- as used in {{about}}, {{redirect}}, and their variants. Also introduced --
-- are andList & orList helpers for formatting lists with those conjunctions. --
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- List stringification helper functions
--
-- These functions are used for stringifying lists, usually page lists inside
-- the "Y" portion of "For X, see Y" for-see items.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--default options table used across the list stringification functions
local stringifyListDefaultOptions = {
conjunction = "and",
separator = ",",
altSeparator = ";",
space = " "
}
-- Stringifies a list generically; probably shouldn't be used directly
function stringifyList(list, options)
-- Type-checks, defaults, and a shortcut
checkType("stringifyList", 1, list, "table")
if #list == 0 then return nil end
checkType("stringifyList", 2, options, "table", true)
options = options or {}
for k, v in pairs(stringifyListDefaultOptions) do
if options[k] == nil then options[k] = v end
end
local s = options.space
-- Set the separator; if any item contains it, use the alternate separator
local separator = options.separator
for k, v in pairs(list) do
if string.find(v, separator) then
separator = options.altSeparator
break
end
end
-- Set the conjunction, apply Oxford comma, and force a comma if #1 has "§"
local conjunction = s .. options.conjunction .. s
if #list == 2 and string.find(list[1], "§") or #list > 2 then
conjunction = separator .. conjunction
end
-- Return the formatted string
return mw.text.listToText(list, separator .. s, conjunction)
end
-- Stringifies a list with "and"
function p.andList (list)
return stringifyList(list, {conjunction = "and"})
end
-- Stringifies a list with "or"
function p.orList (list)
return stringifyList(list, {conjunction = "or"})
end

-- For see

-- Makes a "For X, see [[Y]]." list from raw parameters. Intended for the
-- {{about}} and {{redirect}} templates and their variants.
