--[=[ -- This module implements User-multi error: no username detected (help).. User-multi error: no username detected (help). is a high-use template, sometimes -- with thousands of transclusions on a page. This module optimises the -- template's performance by reducing the number of parameters called from -- wikitext, while still allowing all the features provided by -- Module:UserLinks. It is about twice as fast as the version of User-multi error: no username detected (help). -- that called the Template:User-multi template from wikitext. --]=]
