Description Morten Blaabjerg 2006-07-26 10:09:41 UTC
When a template is used for category insertion, and used with a variable for the category 
sort key, (such as {{templatename|sortkey}}, with template text being 
[[Category:name|sortkey]]) - the template messes up the sort key of the category, listing 
pages below "{" instead of the beginning letters. This occurs both with using ordinary 
text as sortkey, as well as variables such as {{PAGENAME}}.
Comment 1 Andrew Culver 2006-07-26 13:45:28 UTC
Confirmed in 1.7.1

Template:Test:
[[Category:Wiki tools|{{{sortkey}}}]]

In article:
{{Test:Foo}}
Comment 2 Andrew Culver 2006-07-26 13:46:24 UTC
Rather:
{{Test|Foo}}
of course.
Comment 3 Aryeh Gregor (not reading bugmail, please e-mail directly) 2006-07-26 18:11:23 UTC
Confirmed on test-wiki: http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:6821_test.  Note
that category display on the page itself is also buggy, see [[Test:6821]] (if
that works).
Comment 4 Mormegil 2007-04-11 17:46:11 UTC
This seems to be working fine, now. See
http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:6821_test.
Probably has been fixed by someone in the meantime.
Comment 5 Morten Blaabjerg 2007-04-11 18:29:33 UTC
Looks like you're right! Great ! :-)
