{{High use}}
{{Lua|Module:Detect singular}}
== Usage ==
<code><nowiki>{{Pluralize from text|generic parameter|singular=singular output|likely=likely plural output|plural=plural output|link=wikilink}}</nowiki></code><br/>
<code><nowiki>{{Pluralize from text|generic parameter|plural argument|singular output|plural output|wikilink}}</nowiki></code>

For use in infoboxes. Takes a generic parameter (e.g, {{para|nickname}}) and a plural argument (e.g., {{para|nicknames}}) and returns a singular output (e.g., "Nickname") if the plural argument is not given and [[Template:Detect singular]] determines that the value of {{para|nickname}} is singular by examining the text. Otherwise produces plural output (e.g., "Nicknames")

If the wikilink is provided, the returned value will use that as a link, and the output will be the link's display text.

The template makes a decision whether a string is a "likely plural" or a full "plural". The {{para|likely}} argument will be the output if the template determines that the string is only "likely plural". If {{para|likely}} is not given, "likely plural" and "plural" are treated identically.

The output of the template can be forced by including {{tl|force singular}} or {{tl|force plural}} in the generic parameter.

===Options===
There are four named arguments that control the pluralization:
* {{para|no_comma}} By default, commas (or semi-colons) will cause the text string to be considered plural. Setting {{para|no_comma|1}} turns this behavior off.
* {{para|any_comma}} By default, commas (or semi-colons) that are adjacent to digits are singular. Setting {{para|any_comma|1}} turns this behavior off.
* {{para|no_and}} By default, "and" causes a string to be plural. Setting {{para|no_and|1}} turns this behavior off.
* {{para|parse_links}} By default, wikilinks are considered to be unparseable (singular) objects. Setting {{para|parse_links|1}} will allow the parser to read the contents of the wikilinks and determine whether that makes the string plural.

==Examples==
<code><nowiki>{{Pluralize from text|Chicagoan|singular=singular|plural=plural}}</nowiki></code> → {{Pluralize from text|Chicagoan|singular=singular|plural=plural}}

<code><nowiki>{{Pluralize from text|761 and 345|singular=singular|plural=plural}}</nowiki></code> → {{Pluralize from text|761 and 345|singular=singular|plural=plural}}

<code><nowiki>{{Pluralize from text||761/345|singular=singular|plural=plural}}</nowiki></code> → {{Pluralize from text||761/345|singular=singular|plural=plural}}

<code><nowiki>{{Pluralize from text|Chicagoan|singular=Demonym|plural=Demonyms|link=Demonym}}</nowiki></code> → {{Pluralize from text|Chicagoan|singular=Demonym|plural=Demonyms|link=Demonym}}

<code><nowiki>{{Pluralize from text|761 and 345|singular=Area Code|plural=Area Codes|link=Area code}}</nowiki></code> → {{Pluralize from text|761 and 345|singular=Area Code|plural=Area Codes|link=Area code}}
