-- Blueprint default: Module-level cache for lazy-loaded modules

-- Create error context for the module

-- CONTROL OF TEMPLATE FEATURES: THIS LIST SPECIFIES IN AN EXPLICIT MANNER WHAT FEATURES ARE TO BE CALLED/RENDERED BY THE TEMPLATE.

-- ========== Preprocessors ==========
-- Basic preprocessors

-- Helper function to extract plain text from wiki links for semantic properties
local TemplateHelpers = require('Module:TemplateHelpers')

-- ========== Main Render Function ==========
-- Main render function which delegates to the template's render method
function p.render(frame)
