This is the "Template2" form. To create a page with this form, enter the name of the individual in the following format: Surname, Given name (e.g. Stewart, Andrew)

Please make sure to include the comma and space between surname and given name.

If a page with that name already exists, you will be sent to the existing page which you can edit. In the case that a listing for a name already exists and this is not the individual you would like to add, please disambiguate these individuals by creating an new entry adding their known location in brackets. For example: Stewart, Andrew (Wapping).

This disambiguation is essential for providing a URL for the new entry. Should this not differentiate from an existing entry, please add a number (or the next number, if multiple exist): Stewart, Andrew (Wapping) 1
