Module:GroupNameVariations
This module retrieves name variations associated with a given narrator from Semantic MediaWiki.
Usage
The module can be invoked using #invoke in a template or wiki page.
Parameters
The first unnamed parameter specifies the narrator's name whose name variations should be retrieved.
Behavior
The module queries Semantic MediaWiki for Has Name Variation properties associated with the specified Has Narrator value.
If no results are found, it returns "(no values)".
If multiple results are found, they are concatenated into a list separated by commas, with and before the last item.
Example Output
If NarratorName has the following data in Semantic MediaWiki:
Has Name Variation = John Doe
Has Name Variation = J. Doe
Has Name Variation = Jonathan D.
Then the module will return:
John Doe, J. Doe and Jonathan D.
Notes
The module relies on Semantic MediaWiki (mw.smw.ask).
If the query returns no results, (no values) is displayed.
The function groupMessages is defined but not used in this module.
