Converts a text in the form "Name(s) Surname" to the form "Surname, Name(s)", removing all diacritics in the process.
Syntax:
- {{LastName}} returns the contents of {{PAGENAME}} after processing it.
Syntax with an optional parameter:
- {{LastName|Antonín Dvořák}} returns "Template:LastName"
This template is meant to be used in conjunction with the magic word DEFAULTSORT inside Composer and User pages, delivering to it an appropriate sort key.
- {{DEFAULTSORT:{{LastName}}}}
In the cases in which the template returns an invalid sort key, as for example "Rue, Pierre de la", use a textual key instead:
- {{DEFAULTSORT:La Rue, Pierre de}}
