This set of templates are used to build a table for notable alumni of a school or an organization.

== Related templates ==
*{{tl|AlumniStart}} {{--}} starts the table
*{{tl|end}} or {{tl|AlumniEnd}} {{--}} ends the table

=== Usage ===
<pre>{{AlumniStart}}
{{Alum|name=Name|year=Year|nota=Notability|ref=reference}}
{{Alum|name=Name2|year=Year2|nota=Notability2|ref=reference2}}
{{AlumniEnd}}</pre>

==== Parameters ====
;{{tl|AlumniStart}}

*'''width''': adjusts the table's width; defaults to 80%

;{{tl|Alum}}

*'''name''': Alumnus name; wikilink if possible. For proper sorting by family name, use the {{tl|Sortname}} template instead of a straight name link.
*'''year''': graduation year; do not wikilink
*'''nota''': Notability
*'''ref''': reference

Optional columns can be added before and after the Notability column by using the parameters <kbd>Option1</kbd> and <kbd>Option2</kbd>.

=== Images ===
To include images to the right of the table, a different syntax is used:

<pre>{{alum/start
|ilist = 
|alist =
}}</pre>

Where:

;<code>ilist</code> :is the list of images, in image syntax
;<code>alist</code> :is the alumni list formatted as above

==== Example ====
<pre style="overflow:auto;">
{{alum/start
|ilist=[[Image:Albert Abraham Michelson2.jpg|thumb|100px|Albert Abraham Michelson]]
|alist=
{{Alum
|name={{sortname|Albert A.|Michelson}}<!-- Also listed in "Natural sciences and related fields"-->
|year=1873
|nota= [[Physicist]] who received the 1907 [[Nobel Prize in Physics]]; the first American to receive the [[Nobel Prize]] in sciences. Noted for his work on the measurement of the [[speed of light]] and especially for the [[Michelson-Morley experiment]].
|ref=}}
