This template generates an abbreviation for floruit ("fl."); by default, it has a mouse-over tooltip explaining its meaning.
Parameters
First
This template supports an optional (first, unnamed) parameter representing a year (or range of years). For example, Template:Tlx renders to give fl. 1956. This differs from {{fl.}} 1956 in that {{fl.|1956}} puts a non-breaking space in between the "fl." and the number, which prevents web browsers from inserting a line break there.
Sortable
- This section is inserted from Template:Tlx, so the examples are with that template.
If the parameter "sortable=yes" is specified, the template generates invisible text that will cause the column to sort correctly in sortable tables. However, it is at the cost of having that invisible text read out audibly by many screen readers. "Col 1" without the template does not sort correctly. "Col 2" with the template and sortable=yes sorts correctly.
| Title | Col 1 | Col 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Foo | 1066 | 1066 |
| Bar | c. 1510 | c. 1510 |
| Baz | 1956 | 1956 |
| Jaz | c. 410 | c. 410 |
{| class="sortable wikitable" style=text-align:right;
|-
! Title!!Col 1!!Col 2
|-
| style=text-align:left; | Foo|| 1066|| 1066
|-
| style=text-align:left; | Bar|| c. 1510|| {{circa|1510|sortable=yes}}
|-
| style=text-align:left; | Baz|| 1956|| 1956
|-
| style=text-align:left; | Jaz|| c. 410|| {{circa|410|sortable=yes}}
|}
Link
If the |lk= (as in "link") parameter is set to |lk=off, then the abbreviation will be rendered as plain fl. ; otherwise, the mark of a tooltip is displayed, fl..
- The template previously was wikilinking instead of having a tooltip, so was used to avoid overlinking when used repeatedly in an article.
