Module:Head/doc
This is the documentation page for Module:Head
This is the documentation for Module:Head, the headword-line renderer for the Yezur wiki's Dictionary. It is not called directly: Template:Head invokes it with {{#invoke:Head|head|code|pos|head=…|class=…}}, placed directly beneath a part-of-speech heading in an entry. The language name and the leading asterisk carried by reconstructed languages are read from the registry in Module:Languages, which also backs {{l}}, {{m}} and {{d}}, so all four agree on how a language is named and written.
Parameters
| Parameter | Purpose |
|---|---|
1 |
The language's registry code, such as YAQ-HE or YBS-PJ. Case is normalised to upper case before lookup. A code absent from the registry stands in for the language name in the category names, in upper case, and carries no asterisk.
|
2 |
The part of speech, normalised to lower case: noun, verb, adjective, verb form and so on. It supplies the category names and is not itself displayed.
|
head |
The headword form. Defaults to the page name without its namespace prefix when omitted, which is the usual case; it is given explicitly where the page name and the citation form differ. |
class |
An inflection class from the table below. A class the language and part of speech do not define is ignored, and the headword renders as though none had been given. |
Surrounding whitespace is trimmed from all four. The remaining parameters of Template:Head — gloss, register, etym_type, etym_source and notes — never reach the module. They feed the Lexemes Cargo row, which the template files itself.
Output
The module returns the headword in bold, preceded by * when the registry marks the language as reconstructed, then the note for a recognised inflection class, then the categories. A noun class shows its gender abbreviation and, where the class has one, an italic declension label; a verb class shows its conjugation label alone. So {{head|YAQ-HE|noun|class=F|head=αβισι}} gives αβισι f, and {{head|YAQ-HE|verb|class=IS}} gives the page name in bold followed by (IS-class).
Inflection classes
Classes are defined in the module, by registry code and then by part of speech. Only the languages below have them; for every other language class has no effect.

Categories
Nothing is categorised when the language code is empty; the module then returns the bold headword alone.
With a code and a part of speech, the page is filed under <Language> <part of speech, pluralised> — Pjany adjectives, Ancient Hertic nouns. Plurals are formed in English: a final y not preceded by a vowel becomes ies, an ending in s, x, z, ch or sh takes es, and everything else takes s; part of speech is special-cased to parts of speech.
A second category records lemma status, and is filed whether or not a part of speech is given. A part of speech whose name contains a space followed by form, such as verb form, files the page under <Language> non-lemma forms; anything else, an omitted part of speech included, files it under <Language> lemmas. A recognised inflection class adds the class category from the table above, alongside the plain part-of-speech category rather than instead of it.
