Module:Meanings of minor-planet names index element/sandbox

About

This template and module are used to help semi-automate maintenance on Meanings of minor-planet names#Index. Index elements are automatically stylized based on their redirect status.

An expensive function is used to check redirect status, so this template must not be used on more than 500 elements on the same page.

Usage

For an index element pointing to Meanings of minor planet names: 699001–700000, use

{{MoMP index element|699001}}

See also

• {{List of minor planets index element}}
• {{LoMP}}
