To facilitate the the alphabetization of individuals, add '''<nowiki>{{DEFAULTSORT: Surname, Given Middle}}</nowiki>''' to an article.  In this format, ''Surname'', ''Given'' and ''Middle'' are placeholders.  The placeholder ''Surname'' is the person's last name, and the placeholder ''Given'' is the person's given name or Christian name in the case of individuals baptized into the Christian faith.  ''Middle'' is optional, and can either be the complete middle name or an initial.    Names of individuals with multiple or concatenated last names should substitute whatever is appropriate to generate correct the alphabetical listing for surname.  E.g., Hillary Rodham Clinton should be '''<nowiki>{{DEFAULTSORT: Clinton, Hillary Rodham}}</nowiki>''' and Vicente Fox Quesada  should be '''<nowiki>{{DEFAULTSORT: Fox Quesada, Vicente}}</nowiki>'''.
