![]() | This Lua module is used on 773,000+ pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. Transclusion count updated automatically (see documentation). |
Implements {{Plain text}}. Developed for producing short descriptions from text that may have markup, or other stuff that needs removing from short descriptions.
Usage
{{#invoke:Plain text|main|'''[[foo|hah]]''' is '''''[[gah]]'''''}}
--> hah is gah

- {{KillMarkers}}

--removes anything enclosed in tags that isn't nested, mediawiki strip markers (references etc), files, italic and bold markup
