Template:Encodefirst/doc
Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
This template replaces the first character of the argument with its HTML entity if it is one of four wiki markup characters :
;
*
#
. This can sometimes fix the issue at Help:Template#Problems and workarounds where a character may be processed as though it were at the beginning of a line.
Usage
{{Encodefirst|<string>}}
Examples
The output looks like the input whether a character is replaced or not.
{{Encodefirst|*Lisp}} produces: Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 127.
But the output will behave differently from the input in some situations where it is processed. For example, {{la}} fails as of August 2017 if its argument starts with *
.
{{la|*Lisp}}
causes the asterisk to be processed as list markup and produces broken display.
{{la|{{Encodefirst|*Lisp}}}}
works correctly:
