Okay, well, we're going to have to decide the [[namespace]] issue.  I just noticed that [[John Stanton]] has his page in the article space as well.  Where can we have that conversation?  [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] 17:22, 18 Jan 2006 (EST)

: Mark, you're sounding very dogmatic.  Things should be this way because they should be this way.  I'm not so sure things are so cut and dried automatically better one way over the other.  And if you're not interested in using the features of MediaWiki, perhaps another engine would be a better choice?  [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] 00:59, 19 Jan 2006 (EST)

The purpose of this code is not to show up and differently on Tristram's page, it's to sort the name properly on the [[:Category:Wiki People|category page]].  Otherwise, we'd all end up in the U section, if we're using [[namespace]]s.  If we're not using namespaces, then we could use that code to sort by last name, if we wanted to.
