Usage
Templates
This module has only one entry point for templates:
{{#invoke:Excerpt|main}}— Wraps the get() entry point, see its documentation for details
The main entry point gives access to most if not all the functionality of the module and should suffice for most simple templates, but in more sophisticated cases, it my become necessary to create a custom submodule like Module:Excerpt/templates to implement the template.
