If we go there, then more changes will have to be made to properly arrange the projects in the sidebar according to alphabetical order. Just for example,

BlazBlue should be after Biblia Koshodou no Jiken Techou, not between Baccano! and Baka to Tesuto to Syokanju.
The Circumstances Leading to Waltraute's Marriage should be near the bottom of the list, not between Campione! and Chrome Shelled Regios.
And some more...

For Walraute though, it's the C from "Circumstances" that counts. Just like W is what counts in "The World God Only Knows".

I follow the librarian system.

After all, if we just follow the first word, all the books that start with "The" will be the biggest section in the library.... :roll: :lol:

Then I suppose that you are using the names like this:

My Maid is a Formless Entity to My Maid is a Formless Entity With Maid as the first word :?:

Nope. Title-sorting only ignores the indefinite/definite article, so only A/An/The are ignored and the next word after is used as the basis to sort instead.

Code: Select all

Wiki Media Sidebar :
*Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei
*My Maid is a Formless Entity
*Maoyuu Maou Yuusha
Now my brain sure buged out... *loss consciousness*

しょうがないね〜

That might be sorted by grammatical sort with first-noun priority (so it skips the 'my' in this instance since it's a pronoun), but it's more then likely a mistake. Even most libraries just use mechanical/title sort nowadays (or even back when I hung around libraries a little too much when I was a kid).

The wiki has already a stalled category. Just add {{Template:STALLED}} to the inactive project. Once it had even a own point in the sidebar. But I assume it was too much work to change each time the sidebar whenever a project did go inactive or was reactivated since there arent many who can change the sidebar.

Its now only a subitem under categories named Inactive Projects.

I request that a bulk media uploading extension, such as MultiUpload or MsUpload, be added to the wiki because uploading multiple images at a time, especially when you are uploading illustrations for more than one volume, becomes a pain.

Looks like you want the work to be easy... it has 7 years of B-T and always uploading images one by one(yeah it's a pain but it's cool). Anyway, the only one who can do that is TLG, even oni can't(For what he said I can suppose it). So it have to be asked directly, and I think there's reasons for B-T don't have the extension(Which if exists I don't know.)

Yes, I want the work to become easier. Just because it has been 7 years of uploading images individually, that doesn't mean it has to stay that way forever. And I posted this here because I believe that from here, the request will reach the appropriate person(which is TLG, since only he can add extensions). And if there are reasons for not adding the extension, then I am not aware of them and thus I have requested the addition.
