If the status is anything other than the above, it will be ignored and the default value of 'Unknown' will be displayed in the template instead.  In cases where the value is omitted, it will be categorised as [[:category:extensions with unknown status|unknown]].  In cases where the value is invalid, it will be placed in a [[:category:extensions with invalid status|special category]] so that the error can be caught and fixed.

Any other value for 'type' is invalid, and will cause the extension to be placed in [[:Category:extensions with invalid or missing type]].

* ''[[:Category:List extensions|list]]'' - List
* ''[[:Category:Table extensions|table]]'' - Table
(Obviously, better template coding to allow multiple types without having to create separate syntax for all possible combinations is needed.) Any other value for 'type' is invalid, and will cause the extension to be placed in [[:Category:Extensions with invalid or missing type]].
