&lt;br /&gt;
This module is intended to provide access to basic string functions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most of the functions provided here can be invoked with named parameters, &lt;br /&gt;
unnamed parameters, or a mixture.  If named parameters are used, Mediawiki will &lt;br /&gt;
automatically remove any leading or trailing whitespace from the parameter.  &lt;br /&gt;
Depending on the intended use, it may be advantageous to either preserve or&lt;br /&gt;
remove such whitespace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Global options&lt;br /&gt;
    ignore_errors: If set to 'true' or 1, any error condition will result in &lt;br /&gt;
        an empty string being returned rather than an error message.  &lt;br /&gt;
        &lt;br /&gt;
    error_category: If an error occurs, specifies the name of a category to &lt;br /&gt;
        include with the error message.  The default category is  &lt;br /&gt;
        [Category:Errors reported by Module String].&lt;br /&gt;
        &lt;br /&gt;
    no_category: If set to 'true' or 1, no category will be added if an error&lt;br /&gt;
        is generated.&lt;br /&gt;
        &lt;br /&gt;
Unit tests for this module are available at Module:String/tests.&lt;br /&gt;

Helper function that populates the argument list given that user may need to use a mix of&lt;br /&gt;
named and unnamed parameters.  This is relevant because named parameters are not&lt;br /&gt;
identical to unnamed parameters due to string trimming, and when dealing with strings&lt;br /&gt;
we sometimes want to either preserve or remove that whitespace depending on the application.&lt;br /&gt;
