Template:Sortname cell/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Usage
{{sortname cell|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 parameters
|dab=disambiguator
Wikilinks to "first last (disambiguator)".
(Note: ignored if optional link target is not blank.)
|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

[edit]

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}}.

Classes

[edit]

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.
