Usage

Description	You type	You get
Basic usage
simple counter	* Alice: {{#+: agree}} * Bob: {{#+: agree}} * Carol: {{#+: disagree}} * Dave: {{#+: agree}} * Eve: {{#+: disagree}} * Isaac: {{#+: agree}} total: * '''{{#+: ? agree}} ''' * '''{{#+: ? disagree}}'''	Alice: agree Bob: agree Carol: disagree Dave: agree Eve: disagree Isaac: agree total: 4 agree 2 disagree
simple counter with numbers	# {{#+: 1 person}} # {{#+: 2 person}}s # {{#+: 3 person}}s total: '''{{#+: ? person}}s''' <br /> number of person: '''{{#+: ? | person}}'''	1 person 2 persons 3 persons total: 6 persons number of person: 6
a, an, one, two...twenty	{{#+:1 apple}} + {{#+:1 apple}} + {{#+:1 apple}} + {{#+:2 apple}}s <br /> = '''{{#+:? apple}}s'''	apple + apple + apple + 2 apple = 5 apples
You can count more than one item in a single tag	We have {{#+: apple|fruit,red}}, {{#+: orange|fruit,yellow}} and {{#+: 2 banana|fruit,yellow}}s <br /> We have '''{{#+: ? fruit}}s''', '''{{#+: ? | yellow}}''' of them are yellow	We have an apple, an orange and 2 bananas We have 4 fruits, 3 of them are yellow
Handle special plural
you can add the results	{{#+: 1 man}} and {{#+: 1 man}} and {{#+: 2 men}} <br /> total: '''{{#+: ? men|man,men}}'''	1 man and 1 man and 2 men total: 4 men
you can also specify that 1 man is 1 men	{{#+: 1 man|men}} plus {{#+: 5 men}}, then {{#+: 2 men|men|-2}} leave <br /> remain: '''{{#+: ? men}}'''	1 man plus 5 men, then 2 men leave remain: 4 men
