{{sortname|first|last|optional link target|optional sort key}}
Alternative version of {{sort}} tailored to the wikilinked names of persons, to be used in a sortable table (created with class="wikitable sortable").
The default sort key is "last, first".
The link label is "firstlast".
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 likely to never have articles so shouldn't be redlinked. (Note: optional link target ignored when "|nolink=1" used.)
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.
