Unless optional argument `nocap` is given, the family name at the beginning of the returned value will be
capitalized. This capitalization is correct for category names, but not if the family name is lowercase and
the returned value of this function is used in the middle of a sentence. (For example, the pseudo-family with
the code {qfa-mix} has the name {"mixed"}, which should remain lowercase when used as part of the category name
[[:Category:Terms derived from mixed languages]] but should be capitalized in [[:Category:Mixed languages]].)

Returns the name of the Wikipedia article for the family. `project` specifies the language and project to retrieve
the article from, defaulting to {"enwiki"} for the English Wikipedia. Normally if specified it should be the project
code for a specific-language Wikipedia e.g. "zhwiki" for the Chinese Wikipedia, but it can be any project, including
non-Wikipedia ones. If the project is the English Wikipedia and the property {wikipedia_article} is present in the data
module it will be used first. In all other cases, a sitelink will be generated from {:getWikidataItem} (if set). The
resulting value (or lack of value) is cached so that subsequent calls are fast. If no value could be determined, and
`noCategoryFallback` is {false}, {:getCategoryName} is used as fallback; otherwise, {nil} is returned. Note that if
`noCategoryFallback` is {nil} or omitted, it defaults to {false} if the project is the English Wikipedia, otherwise
to {true}. In other words, under normal circumstances, if the English Wikipedia article couldn't be retrieved, the
return value will fall back to a link to the family's category, but this won't normally happen for any other project.
