Hi,
I've noticed in https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Derivative_versions a magic word (or something that looks like it, at least) |media:| and I was wondering where it came from because it doesn't seem to work on my Wiki.
Thanks for your time, Brenton

The 'Media:' pseudonamespace is used for an alternate way of linking to uploaded files in the File: namespace; a link to [[Media:Foo.png]] will link directly to the full-size Foo.png file, while a link [[File:Foo.png]] will embed the image and link to the file information page.
It should work as it's built-in to MediaWiki core... what are you seeing happen instead of the expected links?

I just realized I'm getting errors as module:fallback is "attempt to index a nil value" at line 73. I thought it might be related to media: which would mean a simple solution, but instead I'm stuck with a Lua error which it seems to me that no one in this mailing list knows how to solve as whenever I ask Lua-related questions no one answers.
