Joe, what is the plan for the 2 parameter, I note you have not used it on the priority list. Could it not be shortened to the following?

{{#ifeq: {{Template:{{{1|}}}/Metadata|info=status}}|0
         |[[{{{1|}}}|<font color="#006400">{{{1|}}}</font>]]
         |{{#ifeq: {{Template:{{{1|}}}/Metadata|info=status}}|1
              |[[{{{1|}}}|<font color="#B8860B">{{{1|}}}</font>]]
              |{{#ifeq: {{Template:{{{1|}}}/Metadata|info=status}}|2
                   |[[{{{1|}}}|<font color="#ff8c00">{{{1|}}}</font>]]
                   |{{#ifeq: {{Template:{{{1|}}}/Metadata|info=status}}|3
                        |[[{{{1|}}}|<font color="#ff4500">{{{1|}}}</font>]]
                        |{{#ifeq: {{Template:{{{1|}}}/Metadata|info=status}}|4
                             |[[{{{1|}}}|<font color="#DC143C">{{{1|}}}</font>]]
                             |[[{{{1|}}}]]}}  }} }} }} }}

Parameter 2 is used a couple of times. It replicates normal links that are piped. So [[Maya peoples|Maya]] becomes {{pl|Maya peoples|Maya}} --Joe Quick (Talk) 14:32, 17 September 2007 (CDT)
