Module:If preview

This module implements {{if preview}} and {{preview warning}}. It helps templates/modules determine if they are being previewed.

Prefer implementing the template versions in other templates.

In a module to use the main(), you need to pass a frame table with an args table.

For the preview warning, use _warning().

--[[
main

This function returns either the first argument or second argument passed to
this module, depending on whether the page is being previewed.

	else
		return frame.args[2] or ''

--[[
pmain

This function returns either the first argument or second argument passed to
this module's parent (i.e. template using this module), depending on whether it
is being previewed.

--[[
warning

This function returns a "preview warning", which is the first argument marked
up with HTML and some supporting text, depending on whether the page is being previewed.
