evaluating syntax 

Dear friends;

a) Lets assume that a user with the « user_name » « First name Last_name » wants to be listed by the last name. Then he can use the syntax and will be listed in the relevant category according to the sort order of the « last_name ».

b) If one would use the shorter syntax then one would be listed in the relevant category according to the sort order of the first character of the « user_name ».

c) Please remember that the common usage of will list the user (in an English wiki) at the letter « U » according to the sort order of the string « User:user_name ».

The syntax provides some flexibility for a) and b). However if the community wants to avoid c) then one should agree about what to do. I suggest that some of the earliest contibutors to «  » should be permitted to change the relevant user pages.

Sample templates can be found at: User language templates should be bilingual.
 * 1) commons:category:User templates
 * 2) commons:meta:category:User templates commons:meta:template:Babel
 * 3) omegawiki template:Babel-1 etc.

portability of code

Behind this concept is the generation (writing) of wiki code which can be copied and pasted between wikis and will preserve the same functionality. It needs to handle also BiDirectional text issues and relate to the directionality of the wiki. Unfortunately most of my work two, tree years ago was on wikis wich are discontinued today or is deleted. There are still some examples left. Listing them would take some hours. Documenting them for newcomers would take some weeks. Best regards « לערי ריינהארט » at commons facebook wikieducator.org 15:29, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
