Usage from other Lua modules
Load the module:
local mFurther = require('Module:Further')
You can then use the _further function like this:
mDetails._further(options, ...)

The options variable is an optional configuration table. At current, the only option available is "selfref", which is used when the output is a self-reference to Wikipedia. to set this option, use {selfref = true}
