→Putting a table in initial alphabetical order: fixed broken anchor. |

Line 2,439:
There are fast and slow ways to do this. Unfortunately, the [[WP:VE|Visual Editor]] does not have a fast way to quickly alphabetize a table. You can manually move rows around one at a time. Click on a cell in a row. Then click on the arrow that shows up at the left of the row. Then click on "move above" or "move below" as needed. If this is buggy or is not working, the rows can be moved around in the wikitext by cutting and pasting rows in the wikitext.
'''A fast way''' is to launch free '''[[w:LibreOffice Calc|LibreOffice Calc]],''' or [[List of spreadsheet software|another spreadsheet program]]. To see how go to '''[[Help:
'''There is another way''' to alphabetize a table, and it keeps all the styling and flag links that a spreadsheet may remove. One can use '''NoteTab Light''' (freeware version of NoteTab). But for this to work, all the wikitext for a row must be on one line. That means the cells in that row are separated by double bars {{big|'''<code><nowiki>||</nowiki></code>'''}}.
