There doesn't seem to be any order to this list. I'm ordering it alphabetically, if that's okay. --Andreasen 23:11, 11 Apr 2006 (PDT)
- I give up. It would be mush easier if someone has a program to sort this list with. --Andreasen 23:55, 11 Apr 2006 (PDT)
- Suggestion that might work: Copy the source into a text file. Add commas to the end of each line (either using regular expressions, or just a simple find-and-replace ]] with ]],). Import into Excel as a comma separated value (CSV) file. Sort with Excel. Export as CSV file. Open CSV file in text editor. Repeat find-and-replace in reverse to remove commas. Copy and paste your newly alphabetically sorted text file into the source window. Voila, you should be done. --Giles 01:28, 12 Apr 2006 (PDT)
