Module:Biglist

-- This module provides some functions to help avoid problems with templates -- that might exceed expand size or time and which might put the page in -- Category:Pages where template include size is exceeded or -- Category:Pages with script errors (time exceeding 10 seconds).

local function collection -- Return a table to hold items. return { n = 0, add = function (self, item) self.n = self.n + 1 self[self.n] = item end, join = function (self, sep) return table.concat(self, sep) end, } end
