Line 178:

I have seen some applications use T as an option for true as well. It might, therefore, be useful to have the letter T (t) represent a true value as well. <span style="border:1px solid maroon; padding:0 2px">[[User:CRwikiCA|<span style="font-family:'Courier';color:maroon">CRwikiCA</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:CRwikiCA|<i style="color:navy">talk</i>]]</span> 15:15, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

;Request

{{edit protected}}

I request a change to the module to recognize T or t and F or f as true and false entries. This would make the full code the following:

<source lang="lua" line>

-- Function allowing for consistent treatment of boolean-like wikitext input.

-- It works similarly to the template {{yesno}}.

return function (val, default)

-- If your wiki uses non-ascii characters for any of "yes", "no", etc., you

-- should replace "val:lower()" with "mw.ustring.lower(val)" in the

-- following line.

val = type(val) == 'string' and val:lower() or val

if val == nil then

return nil

elseif val == true

or val == 'yes'

or val == 'y'

or val == 'true'

or val == 't'

or tonumber(val) == 1

then

return true

elseif val == false

or val == 'no'

or val == 'n'

or val == 'false'

or val == 'f'

or tonumber(val) == 0

then

return false

else

return default

end

end

</source>

Where lines 15 and 23 are new compared to the current code. <span style="border:1px solid maroon; padding:0 2px">[[User:CRwikiCA|<span style="font-family:'Courier';color:maroon">CRwikiCA</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:CRwikiCA|<i style="color:navy">talk</i>]]</span> 18:17, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
