-- STEP 1: Click on the "edit" tab at the top of the page to edit this module.



-- STEP 2: if you want to increment by a number other than 1, put that number below, after the equals sign. 

local increment = 1



-- STEP 3: Replace the example template text with the template text that you wish to increment.

local templatetext = [==========[

|header3  = Section 1

|label5   = Label A

|data5    = Data A

|label7   = Label C

|data7    = Data C

|header10 = Section 2

|label12  = Label D

|data12   = Data D

]==========]



-- STEP 4: Save this module.



-- STEP 5: You can now output the incremented text with the following code:

--                {{subst:#invoke:IncrementParams|main}}

-- Or you can simply copy and paste the text from this module's documentation.



-- STEP 6: Check the output! In rare cases this module might produce false positives.

-- For example, it will change the text "[[Some link|foo3=bar]]" to "[[Some link|foo4=bar]]".

-- You can use the "show changes" function in the edit window of the template you are editing

-- to find any false positives.



-- STEP 7: When you are finished, undo your changes to this page, so that the next person

-- won't be confused by seeing any non-default values. Thanks for using this module!
