 | This module is subject to page protection. It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing. |
 | This Lua module is used on approximately 1,750,000 pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to it should first be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages. The tested changes can then be added to this page in a single edit. Please consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
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; if the |separator= should contain spaces, use the HTML escape code  . Separated entries does not raise any errors by design.
