Thanks for this reply. To simplify tests for existing variables I now use 
builtin jinja2 filter "*default()*" such as "*{% for person in persons | 
default('') %}*" to do not first have to test if the variable "*persons*" 
is defined. If I remove the part "* | default('')*" from the for-loop and 
the variable is not defined ansible will raise an error.
