Use
editThis 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]] | <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 |
