Hi there,
I was asked to setup a MediaWiki but there are some strange (though obvious
in their case) requests that have been made which I'm not sure what the best
solution for integration is. Here they are briefly:
- They have a list of authors and animators and would like to sort them
in a category by last name first. All the articles currently created begin
with first and last. I realised that there is a transclusion option called
{{DEFAULTSORT:}} which lets you define its sort value. The problem is, I'm
not sure how to invert and display the name on the category page with the
inverse.
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Category doesn't tell me
much other than about the default sort value.
Just use {{DEFAULTSORT:Einstein,
Albert}} on the page about Albert
Einstein. There's no way of doing this automatically, partly because the
software wouldn't know what to do with names like Hillary Rodham Clinton
(is Rodham a middle name or a surname?).
