Differences between InfoboxVAX-Data source code and items displayed on page

There are a lot of (mostly wrong) items in the InfoboxVAX-Data source code that are not displayed on the page. But you find those items using the "search" function of the Wiki, which is at least irritating.

I found this on other pages before, too, but I cannot remember which pages ...

If you tell me how to correct this, I will gladly do it. Vaxorcist (talk) 11:34, 14 August 2022 (CEST)

It looks like a lot the missing parameterized items are commented out, even though Template:InfoboxVAX-Data supports them. E.g. Codename, OS-support-VMS, etc. (My guess is that this was done because either i) when the page was created, the template didn't support them, so they were 'temporarily' commented out, but the person forgot to go back and add them in; or ii) this page was created by copying another page, and the person knew those were wrong, and again, never came back to fix them.) Just remove the commenting (matching <!-- and -->) and they should appear. Something else I need to add to the syntax help page. Jnc (talk) 16:57, 14 August 2022 (CEST)
ROFL! It looks like "the person" was me. So it was ii). Jnc (talk) 17:01, 14 August 2022 (CEST)
