Loaders for objects, which load data (or some other object) into some variable, which can then be accessed as "foo or get_foo()", where the function get_foo sets the object to "foo" and then returns it. This ensures they are only loaded when needed, and avoids the need to check for the existence of the object each time, since once "foo" has been set, "get_foo" will not be called again.]==]

Format the categories with the appropriate sort key.
* `categories` is a list of categories. Each entry in the list can be either a string (the full category, minus
the {"Category:"} prefix) or an object. In the latter case, the object should have fields
** `cat`: the full category, minus the {"Category:"} prefix (required);
** `lang`: optional language object to override the overall `lang`;
** `sort_key`: optional sort key to override the overall `sort_key`;
** `sort_base`: optional sort base to override the overall `sort_base`;
** `sc`: optional script object to override the overall `sc`.
* `lang` is an object encapsulating a language; if {nil}, the object for language code {"und"} (undetermined) will
be used. `lang` is used when computing the sort key (either from the subpage name or sort base).
* `sort_key` is placed in the category invocation, and indicates how the page will sort in the respective category.
Normally '''do not use this'''. Instead, leave it {nil}, and if you need to a control the sort order, use
{sort_base}, so that language-specific normalization is applied on top of the specified sort base. If neither
{sort_key} nor {sort_base} is specified, the default is to apply language-specific normalization to the subpage
name; see below.
* `sort_base` lets you override the default sort key while still maintaining appropriate language-specific
normalization. If {nil} is specified, this defaults to the subpage name, which is the portion of the full pagename
after subtracting the namespace prefix (and, in certain namespaces such as {User:}, but notably not in the
mainspace, after subtracting anything up through the final slash). The actual sort key is derived from the sort
base approximately by lowercasing, applying language-specific normalization and then uppercasing; note that the
same process is applied in deriving the sort key when no sort base is specified. For example, for French, Spanish,
etc. the normalization process maps accented letters to their unaccented equivalents, so that e.g. in French,
{{m|fr|ça}} sorts after {{m|fr|ca}} (instead of after the default Wikimedia sort order, which is approximately
based on Unicode sort order and places ç after z) and {{m|fr|côté}} sorts after {{m|fr|coté}} (instead of between
c and d). Similarly, in Russian the normalization process converts Cyrillic ё to a string consisting of Cyrillic е
followed by U+10FFFF, so that effectively ё sorts after е instead of the default Wikimedia sort, which (I think)
puts ё after я, the last letter of the Cyrillic alphabet.
* `force_output` forces normal output in all namespaces. Normally, nothing is output if the page isn't in the main,
Appendix:, Thesaurus:, Reconstruction: or Citations: namespaces.
* `sc` is a script object; if nil, the default will be derived from the sort base (or its default value, the
subpage name) by calling {lang:findBestScript()}. The value of `sc` is used during the sort base normalization
process; for example, languages with multiple scripts will often have script-specific normalization processes.]==]

Add a "catfix", which is used on language-specific category pages to add language attributes and often script
classes to all entry names. The addition of language attributes and script classes makes the entry names display
better (using the language- or script-specific styles specified in [[MediaWiki:Common.css]]), which is particularly
important for non-English languages that do not have consistent font support in browsers.
Language attributes are added for all languages, but script classes are only added for languages with one script
listed in their data file, or for languages that have a default script listed in the {catfix_script} list in
[[Module:utilities/data]]. Some languages clearly have a default script, but still have other scripts listed in
their data file and therefore need their default script to be specified. Others do not have a default script.
* Serbo-Croatian is regularly written in both the Latin and Cyrillic scripts. Because it uses two scripts,
Serbo-Croatian cannot have a script class applied to entries in its category pages, as only one script class
can be specified at a time.
* Russian is usually written in the Cyrillic script ({{cd|Cyrl}}), but Braille ({{cd|Brai}}) is also listed in
its data file. So Russian needs an entry in the {catfix_script} list, so that the {{cd|Cyrl}} (Cyrillic) script
class will be applied to entries in its category pages.
To find the scripts listed for a language, go to [[Module:languages]] and use the search box to find the data file
for the language. To find out what a script code means, search the script code in [[Module:scripts/data]].]==]

Given a type (as a string) and an arbitrary number of entities, checks whether all of those entities are language,
family, script, writing system or Wikimedia language objects. Useful for error handling in functions that require
one of these kinds of object.
If `noErr` is set, the function returns false instead of throwing an error, which allows customised error handling to
be done in the calling function.]==]
