Function makerow

This function is under development for use in articles. It creates a single table row from one Wikidata entity using a given set of properties. The first cell is the label for the Wikidata entity and it is marked up as a row-header. An "editonwikidata" icon is appended to the first cell. The table caption, column headings and scopes, etc. should be supplied externally. See the examples for more detail. <syntaxhighlight lang="moin"> Lua error in Module:Wikidata_table at line 264: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). </syntaxhighlight>

Notes
A table cell can be made up of a combination of multiple properties, qualifiers and references.
Whitespace is ignored in the list of pids.
The separator for cell values is the comma ,.
Within a cell, multiple properties are separated by the plus sign +.
Each property can be separated from one or more qualifiers by a forward-slash /.
Each qualifier is separated by a hyphen - (although any punctuation other than , + / will work).
