TemplateData for Number table sorting hidden
'''Ntsh''' ('''<u>N</u>'''umber '''<u>T</u>'''able '''<u>S</u>'''orting, '''<u>H</u>'''idden) generates a hidden sort key that allows numbers to sort correctly when a column of a sortable table needs to be sorted alphabetically. This template is a hidden version of {{tl|Number table sorting}}. See [[Help:Sortable tables#Sorting with a hidden key]]. It can be used to prefix non-numeric entries; for example, using <code>{{ntsh|0}}None</code> will cause "None" to be sorted as if it had a numeric value of zero.<p>This template has the same limitation as {{tl|Number table sorting}}. Please read [[Template:Number table sorting#Limitations]].</p>
| Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |

| Debug mode | debug | If set to yes, causes the search key to be displayed in a box followed by the number. Do not use in article space. | Boolean | optional |
