Game Sorting

[Petie]

I've been wanting to do this for a while but only just figured out the most efficient way to go about it. Games now sort properly on all sites. What this means is that games that begin with "A", "An", or "The" will now fall under their proper letter instead of A or T. This should be applicable anywhere games are listed so please let me know if you find a list that I missed somewhere!

[SuperFlomm]

So, does this mean we are going to add "The" to games which are missing it at the moment? Like The Sims and The Binding of Isaac?

[Petie]

I already added it to The Legend of Zelda so yes, that's the plan! I guess if someone wants to start compiling a list in this thread, someone from staff will start going through and making the necessary changes.

Alright, here is a list of things I noticed.

Dealt with all of those! And this is extremely useful, thanks a bunch Petie! I'll go through all of the game submissions in a bit, adding the respective prefixes where necessary.

(EDIT: Uh oh! Found a bug -- the DS Urbz: Sims in the City is the only game in the "U" section, but because it starts with "The" now, the "U" letter is unselectable, despite showing up there.)

[Petie]

I was worried about that but didn't have anything to test with at the time. I'll look into that, thanks!

[SuperFlomm]

Are sheets affected by this new sorting too?

[Petie]

Currently only on search results though I do intend to eventually include them every where.

Edit:
It took some doing but letters now display correctly when there is only one game in their section and that game beings with an article. I also did a quick test case to see if it would sort something like The 7th Dragon (using the DS game 7th Dragon and a couple of quick renames) correctly and it works as well so I think that should cover it. I'll work on getting sheets sorted correctly soon too so feel free to start submitting lists and/or revisions if there are incorrectly named sheets out there.

This sounds like an excellent change!

I agree having them sorted the other way can make it confusing sometimes.

[SuperFlomm]

The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
The Lost
The Belt
The Book of Belial
The Common Cold
The Gamekid
The Inner Eye
The Nail
The Sad Onion

The Stanley Parable
All of them

Railroad Tycoon 3
Everything, except Sound Effects

[Petie]

Sheets should now also sort properly! As with games, please let me know if I missed anything.

I think Incredible Machine and Incredible Machine 2 are supposed to be prefixed by "The"

I think Incredible Machine and Incredible Machine 2 are supposed to be prefixed by "The"

I was going to get to that eventually.

I'm up to the Mobile games on tSR now, I think I've covered everything but there's bound to be at least one I missed.
