This template uses Lua:

Module:Sort

This template is for manually adjusting sorting order in sortable tables by specified sortkeys.

Usage: {{Sort | 1 = {{{sort value}}} | 2 = {{{displayed value}}} }} → {{{displayed value}}}

The first parameter is the sortkey; the second parameter is the wikitext of what has to be displayed. By default, this is the sortkey with link brackets:

{{Sort | 1 = {{{displayed value}}} }} → [[{{{displayed value}}}]]

A table using this template should use it in all rows.

This template works by adding a hidden sort value, which replaces the value of the visible text for sorting purposes. The HTML output looks like: <span data-sort-value="sortvalue">[[displayed value]]</span>.

Example

|{{Sort|Brothers Karamazov|[[The Brothers Karamazov]]}}

→ |<span data-sort-value="Brothers Karamazov !">[[The Brothers Karamazov]]</span>

Sorting by numerical value, date, etc.: See Help:Sortable tables#Numerical sorting problems and meta:Help:Sorting#Sort modes

Equal rank: If you simply code as the second parameter an indicator that two items are equally ranked, e.g. "4=", the template interpreter will treat this as an additional parameter (i.e. parameter 4, which it will then not use). You must explicitly code this as parameter 2:

{{Sort|4|2=4=}}
