Template:List lookup helper

Template documentation

Given a list page, loads it exactly once and sets up enough variables it will not need to be loaded again to retrieve any entry. If this template has been invoked before with the same page_name, no-op.

• page_name - the page name provided as arg1
• loaded_page - the text of page_name
• length - the length of the list
• entry_i - the entry in the list at position i, where i is in [1, length-1] (0-indexed)

There is also the housekeeping variable "invocations", which equals the number of times this template was resolved and should thus always be 1.
