Sort order

[edit]

Within each group, athletes are sorted by surname (i.e. men and women mixed). If you send me Wikimail, I can send you my spreadsheet that does the sorting for you. Schwede66 20:43, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'll change my edits manually. J947 21:11, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Schwede66, should 'Mc' and 'Mac' be counted as the same thing? J947 21:20, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The convention is that, for example, McDonald, MacDonald, and Macdonald, is always sorted as "Macdonald". Schwede66 21:31, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Had a look for the relevant guideline and it turns out that I'm wrong (or the guideline has change since I last looked at it), but WP:MCSTJR shows how we sort the Scots. I'll fix it; sorry for putting you wrong. Schwede66 18:47, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
