   lower extremity. Front view.
| Innervates =[[medial
       compartment of thigh]]
| BranchFrom =[[Lumbar plexus]]
| BranchTo   =
 [[posterior branch of obtu..]],

[edit] Template implementation notes

The template was implemented in January 2006 using the MediaWiki parser-functions language (which was updated in January 2008 to run with a recursive descent parser).

Changes should be made and verified in a test-version of the template by copying it into user-space (under "User:XXX/Template:Infobox_Nerve"). Changes can be checked by editing actual articles by edit-preview (not Save) with the template-brace calls prefixed by "{{User:XXX/Template:...}}" but never saved that way.

When modifying the template or documentation ("/doc" subpage), it is often necessary to purge the template cache (using "action=purge"), such as to display modified documentation:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Infobox_Nerve&action=purge

Running old versions of the template can be very confusing and frustrating when trying to install and verify improvements copied from test-versions of the template (so remember "action=purge").
