Purpose
This is more of a proof of concept than anything. The template takes Russian words/phrases and produces their romanization using all major systems (at present, only three are supported).

Issues and plans

 * Formatting at present is rather crude non-existent.
 * Trailing space is added to the output. Not sure why.
 * Maximum length of input is 100 characters (any remainder is trimmed)
 * Obviously, having to pass each character as a separate parameter is a huge drawback. This is due to the fact that Wikimedia servers do not have string functions enabled.
 * BGN/PCGN's interpunct digraphs are not yet supported. They will eventually be implemented as an option that can be switched on and off.
