Template:Hid/doc

Use

This template hides a string of text. If the contents of a cell of a sortable table are prefixed with a hidden string, the cell will sort using the hidden string.

The syntax for this template is:

{{hid|var1}}

where var1 is a string of text.

The use of this template is illustrated by the following sortable table:

House of Windsor

Wikitext	Hidden prefix	Sort without key	Sort with key
{{hid|A}}[[Edward VII]]	<span data-sort-value="A"></span>	Edward VII	Edward VII
{{hid|B}}[[George V]]	<span data-sort-value="B"></span>	George V	George V
{{hid|C}}[[Edward VIII]]	<span data-sort-value="C"></span>	Edward VIII	Edward VIII
{{hid|D}}[[George VI]]	<span data-sort-value="D"></span>	George VI	George VI
{{hid|E}}[[Elizabeth II]]	<span data-sort-value="E"></span>	Elizabeth II	Elizabeth II
