I was just about to start another thread but seeing as you mention the "author link template" here can I just ask in here...

I have my authors listed as e.g. Joyce, James [I think you do the same don't you, kiwidude?]. That means I have to do one extra click in Wikipedia; it takes you to the search page instead.

Is it possible to write a template (currently: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search={author} ) that swaps last name, first name when I click on the author link template link in Book Details?
