Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127. Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

This module is used to detect the page type of a given page. It detects redirect pages automatically and is highly customisable. It can be used on its own or as a meta-module to create other page-type-detection templates. This module can also be accessed using {{pagetype}}.

Syntax

Basic usage
{{#invoke:pagetype|main}}
All parameters
{{#invoke:pagetype|main

| other             = 
}}

Basic usage

For simple detection of the page type of the current page, use the default settings: 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main}}

That will produce the following results, depending on the page type or the namespace:

Page type / namespace Output
Redirects (in any namespace) redirect
Main namespace article
File namespace file
Template namespace template
Category namespace category
Module namespace module
Book namespace book
Other namespaces page

If the module is used on a talk page, it will detect the page type for the corresponding subject page.

Example
Code Result
{{#invoke:pagetype|main}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

Page parameter

You can use the page parameter to make the module act as though it was called from that page. 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=page name}}
Examples
Code Result
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=United Kingdom}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=UK}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Talk:United Kingdom}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=File:Example.svg}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia:Namespace}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=TimedText:Imagine.ogg.en.srt}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

Adding and removing namespaces

It is possible to specify different behaviour for each namespace than that described in the basic usage section. For example, you might want the module to display "user page" for pages in the user namespace, instead of the default "page". To do this, you can use the code |user=yes. This looks up the typical name used for pages in the user namespace, in this case "user page", and uses that text when the module is used with a page in the user namespace. To use this with other namespaces, use the namespace name in lower case as a parameter: 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main
| user              = yes
| wikipedia         = yes
| project           = yes
| wp                = yes
| mediawiki         = yes
| help              = yes
| portal            = yes
| draft             = yes
| education program = yes
| timedtext         = yes
| topic             = yes
| special           = yes
| media             = yes
}}

You can use any of the following to specify the namespace: "yes", "y", "true" or "1". They can be used in any combination of upper and lower case. (These values are defined by Module:Yesno.)

The default text for these namespaces is as follows:

Page type / namespace Output
User namespace user page
Wikipedia namespace project page
MediaWiki namespace interface page
Help namespace help page
Portal namespace portal
Draft namespace draft
Education program namespace education program page
Timed Text namespace Timed Text page
Topic namespace topic
Special namespace special page
Media namespace file

You can use a similar process to remove any of the default namespace values as well. For example, if you use the code |template=no, then the module will display "page" when used on a template page, rather than the default "template". 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main
| main     = no
| file     = no
| template = no
| category = no
| module   = no
| book     = no
}}

The following values will all work to remove namespace values: "no", "n", "false" or "0". They can be used in any combination of upper and lower case.

Examples

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=TimedText:Imagine.ogg.en.srt|timedtext=Yes}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

Default namespace sets

As well as adding and removing individual namespaces, it is possible to specify different sets of namespaces by using the |defaultns=. There are four different sets available: all, extended, none and the default set. These sets allow you to specify many namespaces at once, without having to use all of the individual namespace parameters. Namespaces are set according to the following table:

Namespace Value of |defaultns= Output
none extended all Other values
Main ☒N ☑Y ☑Y ☑Y article
User ☒N ☑Y ☑Y ☒N user page
Wikipedia ☒N ☑Y ☑Y ☒N project page

Custom namespace values

It is possible to specify a custom value for any namespace: 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main
| main              = custom text
| user              = custom text
| wikipedia         = custom text
| project           = custom text
| wp                = custom text
| file              = custom text
| image             = custom text
| mediawiki         = custom text
| template          = custom text
| help              = custom text
| category          = custom text
| portal            = custom text
| book              = custom text
| draft             = custom text
| education program = custom text
| timedtext         = custom text
| module            = custom text
| topic             = custom text
| special           = custom text
| media             = custom text
}}
Examples
Code Result
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia:Namespace}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=TimedText:Imagine.ogg.en.srt}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=TimedText:Imagine.ogg.en.srt|timedtext=custom text}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

Talk parameter

Normally, the module will treat talk pages as if they were in the corresponding subject namespace. However, if the talk parameter is set, the module will treat talk pages separately from subject pages. The talk parameter sets values for all talk pages, i.e. pages in the Talk: namespace, pages in the User talk: namespace, pages in the Wikipedia talk: namespace, and so on. 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|talk=yes}}

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|talk=custom text}}

The default value for "talk=yes" is "talk page".

Examples
Code Result
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia talk:Namespace}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia talk:Namespace|wikipedia=yes}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia talk:Namespace|talk=yes}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia talk:Namespace|wikipedia=yes|talk=yes}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia talk:Namespace|talk=custom text}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia talk:Namespace|wikipedia=yes|talk=custom text}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

Main namespace classes

For pages in the main namespace, it is possible to add a class value in the first positional parameter: 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|class}}

If the class value matches one of the values in the table below, it will produce an alternative to the default output of article.

Class Class values Output
Disambiguation page disambiguation, disambig, disamb, dab page
No applicable class na, n/a page

You can input the class value in any combination of upper and lower case.

Custom main namespace classes

It is also possible to specify a custom value for the main namespace classes: 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|class|dab=yes|na=yes}}

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|class|dab=custom text|na=custom text}}

This works the same way that it does for the custom namespace page types. Possible parameters are:

  • dab: a custom value for disambiguation-class pages. If set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", this produces "disambiguation page". If set to "no", "n", "false" or "0", no custom value is produced. If set to any other value it produces that text.
  • na: a custom value for NA-class pages. It works in the same way as the dab parameter. The default value for "yes" etc. is "page".
Examples
Code Result
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=United Kingdom}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=United Kingdom|dab}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=United Kingdom|dab|dab=custom text}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=United Kingdom|na}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=United Kingdom|na|na=custom text}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

Redirects

By default, the module automatically detects redirects in all namespace. It is not possible to specify redirect behaviour by namespace, but you can turn redirect detection off, or use a custom value for redirect pages. 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|redirect=no}}

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|redirect=custom text}}
Examples
Code Result
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=UK}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=UK|redirect=no}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=UK|redirect=custom text}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.

Other namespaces

By default, the module produces "page" if used from a namespace that hasn't been specified. This value can be changed with the |other= parameter: 

{{#invoke:pagetype|main|other=custom text}}
Examples
Code Result
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia:Namespace}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia:Namespace|other=custom text}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
{{#invoke:pagetype|main|page=Wikipedia:Namespace|other=custom text|wikipedia=wikipedia-space text}} Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
