== Error in Basque Wikipedia ==
I have just copied this module and the /units module and I get this error:
 
{{Rcat shell|
<code>Luanda errorea in Modulu:Val at line 267:attempt to call local 'lookup' (a nil value).</code>
{{R from remote talk page}}
 
}}
You can see live at: [[:eu:Protoi]]
:Well, solved! It called to ''Module:...." and it should be ''Modulu:...." as in basque language Wikipedia. -[[User:Theklan|Theklan]] ([[User talk:Theklan|talk]]) 20:17, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
::@[[User:Theklan|Theklan]]: No, that's not it—there must have been some other issue, perhaps the fact that the page was displayed before all the modules existed and you saw a cached copy of the page that had the error. The system software (MediaWiki) understands a generic name for each namespace as well as the local name. That means "Module:" works on all WMF projects. Here are two examples to demonstrate:
::*[[:eu:Module:Convert]] and [[:eu:Modulo:Convert]] are identical
::*[[:bn:Module:Convert]] and [[:bn:মডিউল:Convert]] are identical
::Further confirmation is that if you search Module:Convert for "Module:" you will see that it requires [[:eu:Module:Convert/data]] (and more)—convert is very complex and it is not as easy to see as in [[:eu:Module:Val]], but it is there. If you undo your edit to Module:Val you will see that it still works. [[User:Johnuniq|Johnuniq]] ([[User talk:Johnuniq|talk]]) 01:55, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
