Hi
I wanted to use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Clayden on a wiki so I went to Special:Export and added Template:Clayden and checked "Include templates" and got the file which I then imported into a new MW. I expected to get the same output as on enwiki but I got an error instead.
enwiki: J. P. Clayden, N. Greeves, S. G. Warren, P. D. Wothers (2000), Organic Chemistry (1st ed.), Oxford: Oxford University Press, ISBN 978-0-19-850346-0

Without looking into it at all, I'd guess that the Wikipedia template relies on ParserFunctions features from later versions. Wikimedia sites are using version 1.3.0 of ParserFunctions. You could try getting that from trunk, using it with 1.15.1, and seeing if it works (it might only work with 1.16alpha).
