Kigezo:Sortname/hati

Usage

{{sortname|first|last|optional link target|optional sort key}}

Creates a wikilinked name that can be used in a sortable table (created with class="wikitable sortable").

• The default sort key is "last, first".
• The link label is "first last".
• The default link target is "first last"

The optional link target is useful when "first last" is a disambiguation page instead of the desired article, or when linking to a section of a page.

The optional sort key is useful in the case of special characters such as é.

Optional parameter

|nolink=1

Suppresses wikilinking the name, useful for list entries which are never likely to have articles so shouldn't be redlinked.
(Note: optional link target ignored when "|nolink=1" used.)

Microformat

The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the person's name parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia or via a browser tool operated by a reader, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.

To include a URL, use {{URL}}.

The hCard in this template uses at least some of these HTML classes:

• agent
• family-name
• fn (required)
• given-name
• honorific-prefix
• honorific-suffix
• n
• nickname
• org
• url
• vcard

Please do not rename or remove these classes; nor collapse nested elements which use them.
