This utility template extracts the actual class name from a class page name. Game-specific class pages may have a game name appended in parentheses and due to technical restrictions canonical page names always have spaces instead of underscores. The alternate URL-encoded form always has underscores instead of spaces, but also escapes many other characters.
Class and interface description pages containing Template:Infobox class and Template:Infobox interface respectively make the page titles look as if the page name contains underscores only in the correct places through the use of this template and the "magic word" {{DISPLAYTITLE}}.
Usage
This template can take one parameter, which defaults to the current subpage name if omitted.
Suppose the following code is on the page with the canonical name "UE2:ACTION GotoAction (UT2003)":
{{classname}}
It would return: ACTION_GotoAction
Note that the same code would return "Foo" if used on the subpage "ACTION GotoAction (UT2003)/Foo".
