lol, Unicode has definitely an insane number of WTF symbols included.
Maybe I should try to re-implement libcaca in Lua within Module:💩.
Now, for the case of Module:Bananas, I think that Module:Fanciful would
be fine in some cases. In others cases like introduction manual, things
like "MyFirstModule" or "UsernameFirstModule" might do the trick. It
also add implicit information that camel case is the usual way to write
module names. Moreover, one might even argue that "UsernameFirstModule"
easily be dynamically generated, creating an awesome custom user
experience which foster engagement of developers and finally make the
world a really wonderful place to live in (hmm).
Using CamelCase for module names may be specific to particular wikis. The
English Wikipedia doesn't seem to do this as much:
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:PrefixIndex/Module:>.
Oh, well, the main point was you might use "Module:|{{#USERNAME:}}|
first module" in the documentation, or whatever the local convention (if
any) might be. Although one might argue that from a cache perspective
that might not looks like a very attractive idea. But, actually, I have
no idea if there feature which would allow a cache-light substitution
for just some stuff like user name in the content page.
I guess there are caches for stuff like the username in the user menu
though. To be honest, the longest conversation I ever had about cache so
far was probably with a former colleague which was always complaining
about how much he hates vanish. So more hints/links on cache management
in the Wikimedia environment would be welcome. I only know there are
some sever at Amsterdam (if that's still up-to-date information) for
serving Europe in read-only. I can't remember right now if there is an
equivalent server in Asia, which would definitely make sense. Also we
should soon have some backup on the moon, if I well understood :

Sorry for this almost in-topic message. Here are some completely
irrelevant Unicode symbols to seek your forgiveness: ☫⚛💥⏿࿋💯
