Thanks a lot for the reply and instructions! I have now implemented this on Commons. I agree that the operation should be prevented outright and it should be clearly documented how to go about this.

Much appreciated. Thank you!

Agreed, thank you. The rest can wait a bit longer.

I have now figured out that the page has been reloaded as if it had been saved after clicking the "Save" button (no JSON error was reported), but the change has not been implemented.

Of course. The request is to have simple wiki syntax to display the content of a form of the given lexeme stored in Wikidata in Wikipedia and other wiki projects (in the same sense as templates are transcluded) based on providing its ID. For example, one would write {{lf:Form ID}} (lf - lexeme form) or something similar and would get returned the content of the form with the provided ID.
The request should remain open as the feature is still needed.

Hello. I would kindly ask again for the names to be implemented (at least the most pressing ones).

I have now solved this with two modules:

Hello. I'm reopening this request as the issue remains unresolved.

Yes, it will certainly be more complex. At the moment, it would be great if it worked for first letters of the following text string (case-insensitive) though.
I have now thought about it further and it seems it would be best to avoid parsing words starting with a digit altogether, as these are read differently in various cases, which requires understanding the text. So such a magic word would only work for strings starting with a letter or display the default combination of prepositions/articles in case of a number (e.g. a/an in front of 802.16 (Wimax))).
I have tried the code that was proposed above and have figured out two things:
- It only works for lowercase letters (I have then added the lc: function);
- numbers would also have to be accounted for by the function.
Thank you for the comments. I see that this can be solved with parser functions or Lua. In any case, this is used so frequently (also in English with a/an or Italian with il/lo/gli) that it would be smart to have this as simple and readily available as possible. That's why imo it would be best to have it included in the MediaWiki itself.

Hi ppelberg. I'm reopening this task since the predominant term for article/page changes has been 'revision' not 'version' and the terminology should be unified (the 'one concept, one term' principle). 'Version' is rather used in the context of software development. Please see also https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Parameters_to_index.php#Page_revision_or_version, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Version and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Page_history that mostly uses revision.

Hello, Matmarex. It was only a coincidence. Thank you for your feedback. I look forward to these features.
