--- Comment #2 from [email protected] 2012-09-29 18:59:04 UTC --- Well, that was only just an immediate conclusion. Speaking precisely, rows of one (or more) specified column(s) should not be sorted. Most commonly it will be the 1st column as usually there are ordering numbers – e.g. list of cities in Poland* http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miasta_w_Polsce_(statystyki) – while sorting by inhabitants, area, voivodeship, (…) the cells in 1st column with ordering numbers also get sorted while they shouldn't. The 1st column with ordering numbers informs quickly e.g. "Gdańsk is 6th in a row in terms of number of inhabitants" or "there are 125 cities with area <5 km²". Ordering numbers just should be in order all the time regardless of sorting rows – otherwise they just become nonsense. *) It's big article, may load long. In this article I tried to make separate table with ordering numbers that would not be sorted but that looks like… nothing good. The feature is craved. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
