Template:Alum

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

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

Related templates

• {{AlumniStart}} — starts the table
• {{end}} or {{AlumniEnd}} — ends the table

Usage

{{AlumniStart}}
{{Alum|name=Name|year=Year|nota=Notability|ref=reference}}
{{Alum|name=Name2|year=Year2|nota=Notability2|ref=reference2}}
{{AlumniEnd}}

Parameters

{{AlumniStart}}

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

{{Alum}}

• name: Alumnus name; wikilink if possible. For proper sorting by family name, use the {{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 Option1 and Option2.

Images

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

{{alum/start
|ilist = 
|alist =
}}

Where:

ilist

is the list of images, in image syntax

alist

is the alumni list formatted as above

Example

{{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]].
