> Hi,
> 
> I'm working on a wiki that include book titles and book 
> authors, all in the same name space.
> 
> I want to be able to display a list of authors by second 
> name. All authors are in a the category "Author" and I use 
> the [[Category:NAME|SORT]] to sort by second name.
> 
> The category list I get this way does sort as specified, but 
> each author is still displayed with the first name first - 
> which makes list hard to overview.
> 
> Appears that I do have an option to change the page titles 
> for author pages to "[2nd name],_[1st name]" - but I'd prefer 
> not to do this.
> 
> Any hints?
