           Summary: Order of transcluded templates changes between edit &
                    preview views
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.12.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Templates
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


When viewing the list of templates which are trancluded onto a given page in
the normal Edit view, they are shown in alphabetical order
(alphabetically-first template name is listed first).

However, after clicking on "Show Preview", the list is changed to show them in
order of usage (first-used template is listed first).

The latter behavior would be preferable, allowing easier recognition and
references to the items on the page, accordingly to how they are expected to be
found.  If the user needs to find a specifically-named template, and doesn't
know where it might be found on a complex page, they can always do a text
search on the page for that particular item.

Note that this is recognized as occurring under an older MW version.  Is it
already addressed, perhaps?
