Module documentation[view][edit][history][purge]

This documentation is transcluded from Module:Helper module/doc. Changes can be proposed in the talk page.

This module is unused.

This module is neither invoked by a template nor required/loaded by another module. If this is in error, make sure to add {{Documentation}}/{{No documentation}} to the calling template's or parent's module documentation.

Module:Helper module requires Module:Arguments, Module:Mw.html extension, and Module:User error.
