[edit] Organization not displaying

Something's not right: the Organization parameter is simply not displaying. There's a lot of fiddling around with Authorlink and First: are they supposed to be there at all? What actually is the intended format? HTH HAND —Phil | Talk 11:10, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

• Fixed. Organization now shows. Removed unused parameters. --Chalko 19:46, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Case of parameters

Having casey parameters is a major PITA. If I was able to fathom the code in these metatemplates, I would work out how to make it case insensitive or, at least, make it take all lowercase parameters. Like every other template in the whole world ever. Could someone who know how please fix this? Thanks. -Splash^talk 20:58, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
