Template:LinkName

(Redirected from Template:LinkComp)

This template displays a person’s name while simultaneously linking to that person’s category page. Usage example:

{{LinkName|Philip|Legge}}

This puts the person’s name in the correct linguistic order (e.g. Philip Legge) whereas the equivalent link to the person’s category page places the surname first, e.g.: Category:Legge, Philip.

Testing: using LinkName to include all of the functionality inherent in LinkArr, LinkDed, LinkEd, LinkLib, and LinkTr by adding a variable t which can appear anywhere in the template, e.g. {{LinkName|Philip|Legge|t=Arr}} or {{LinkName|t=Ed|Philip|Legge}}

Also testing: if a third variable is used, it replaces the displayed text (this only has an effect for composers with first names and surnames), e.g. {{LinkName|Johann Sebastian|Bach|JS Bach}}
