Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.
If the block-formatted content begins with a list (or any other wikimarkup that is dependent upon a specific markup character being at the beginning of a line) then due to a bug in MediaWiki, a <nowiki /> and a new line must exist before the list (or whatever) starts. Compare:
| code | result | |
|---|---|---|
| FAIL |
{{ Block bug documentation|1=
*Firstly, ...
*Secondly, ...
*Thirdly, ...
}}

| Works as intended |
{{ Block bug documentation|1=<nowiki />

Template:Error |
To embed a table in block markup like this, the block template's content parameter must be named or numbered and include the self-closing noinclude – as in |1=<nowiki /> – then every | character in the table markup must be escaped with {{!}}. An alternative is to use explicit HTML <table>, <tr>, <th>, and <td> markup.
This is transcluded documentation, which can be transcluded in the /doc pages of various templates like {{Block indent}} and {{Quote}}, e.g. under a "Technical issue with block templates" heading or the like. Right now it takes no parameter other than |1=foo, to change the {{{1}}} to something else, thus changing the display (and operation) to use something other than |1= in the shown template operations.
