Possible errors and omissions[ಸಂಪಾದಿಸಿ]

The behaviour of this template could be negatively affected by:

Lack of standardisation at Wikidata: Certain demographics can be handled in different ways. If usage is different from the usage expected by this template, it will not be picked up.
Label changes at Wikidata: This template uses the {{#property}} magic word to return values. If the labels of these values are changed at Wikidata, and this template is not also changed, it will cease to function properly.
