Why does this article mostly use <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:cite web...}}</nowiki></code> rather than <code><nowiki>{{cite web...}}</nowiki></code>, and similarly for many other templates? —[[User:Anomalocaris|Anomalocaris]] ([[User talk:Anomalocaris|talk]]) 17:07, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

: i do not know for sure, but i would imagine that this is done to avoid hitting the [[WP:PEIS|post-expand include size limit]]. the documentation for [[module:cite web|the module]] mentions this as a possible use. [[User:Dying|dying]] ([[User talk:Dying|talk]]) 18:45, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

Peru new death data

Peru has reviewed its death estimates from 70K to over 180K. Why has this not been updated? https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-57307861

peru's entry has apparently been appropriately updated since your post, so i thought i might respond to make it clear to other editors that this has already been addressed. thanks for bringing the issue up. dying (talk) 18:33, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why #invoke?
