Template:Hid
 | This template is deprecated. Table sort keys should now be defined using the data-sort-value attribute, like so: | data-sort-value="Doe, John" | John Doe. Please see WP:SORT § Specifying a sort key for a cell for details. |
Use[change source]
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:
| Wikitext | Hidden prefix | sort without key | sort with key |
|---|---|---|---|
| {{hid|A}}[[Edward VII of the United Kingdom]] | <span class="sortkey">A</span> | Edward VII of the United Kingdom | Edward VII of the United Kingdom |
| {{hid|B}}[[George V of the United Kingdom]] | <span class="sortkey">B</span> | George V of the United Kingdom | George V of the United Kingdom |
| {{hid|C}}[[Edward VIII of the United Kingdom]] | <span class="sortkey">C</span> | Edward VIII of the United Kingdom | Edward VIII of the United Kingdom |
| {{hid|D}}[[George VI of the United Kingdom]] | <span class="sortkey">D</span> | George VI of the United Kingdom | George VI of the United Kingdom |
| {{hid|E}}[[Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom]] | <span class="sortkey">E</span> | Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom | Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom |
