Description Chris Wood 2004-08-31 10:50:25 UTC Eg. All articles in the "Wikipedia" namespace are listed under "W" in categories (unless of course a sort key is given). Why would you want to sort by namespace by default? Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2004-08-31 20:41:07 UTC That's what the page is titled, of course that's how it's going to be sorted. Comment 2 Chris Wood 2004-09-09 01:54:49 UTC Looks like JeLuf disagrees with you - he's fixed this in bug 76. Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2004-09-09 02:01:18 UTC That's a special case for subcategories, which behave differently. Reopening so it can be re-resolved as WONTFIX.
