-- Module:WikitextProcessor
-- Generalized content processor for wikitext formatting and frontend display, regardless of source (JSON, XML, database, user input, etc.)
-- Features: Error handling; Three wiki link patterns: [[Page]], [[Page|text]], [[#anchor|text]]; Placeholder replacement with $VARIABLE$ syntax; Content normalization and whitespace cleanup
