This template is intended to be used when an entity is tied to multiple classnames, especially those that do not appear to serve any purpose other than deprecation.

Usage

Parameters

• {{{name1}}} to {{{name8}}} - The alternate classnames.
• {{{misc}}} - Optional: Use to display additional text in the same note.
• {{{suf}}} - Optional: This is a suffix that will be added to all elements of the template to display the content in the desired language (if it is translated into it).
  Note:There should be a colon before the language code, for example ":es".

Example

{{altnames|name1=x|name2=y|name3=z}} would return as:

AltNames: This entity is also tied to x, y and z.

{{altnames|name1=x|game={{game link|portal}}}} would return as:

AltNames: In Portal , this entity is also tied to x.
