Bug ID: 45034
Summary: Defining a variable with the name "Input" using
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Variables
fails to remember var.
Product: MediaWiki extensions

Defining a variable with the name "Input" using
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Variables fails to remember var when
defining a second variable.
I was trying to build a template, and my first statement was:
{{#vardefine:Input|{{formatnum:{{{1|0}}}|R}}}}
Putting in a {{#var:Input}} Immediately after it correctly reported what number
went in.
Then I defined another variable:
{{#vardefine:Ordinal| ... snip ...}}
with a long section of #switch functions that called upon {{#var:Input}}.
{{#var:Input}}was never redefined inside of {{#var:Ordinal}} (not even
inadvertently with a misplaced |) although placing a {{#var:Input}} directly
after this second variable definition caused it to report as "0". Changing the
name of {{#var:Input}} to {{#var:Decimal}} corrected the problem, so I am led
to believe that "Input" as a variable name is what was causing the issue.
