Something about the titling of this page keeps it from sorting alphabetically with all the other countries/regions in the various related categories; and it is the "the" somehow in the title. For now I'm leaving it all as is, as the only unsorted-by-alpha page for example on this page. Cheers. Swliv (talk) 04:24, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I figured out the process: One adds for instance on this article "|Middle East" after the category name in the double-bracketed Category template; then the article will be sorted alphabetically by the "Mi-" rather than the "Oi-".
