Does a sortable table for titles exist?

Does a sortable table for titles exist?

(I mean the type that is shown here: Wiki_Tips_for_New_Editors#Sortable_Table_Template).

My reasons for asking are due to no apparent results when searching through wiki pages/discussions coupled with the inability for me to create a user page to make one (unless making a subpage of Titles that features the sortable table is allowed). I thought it would be convenient if someone were to be interested determining the best title for particular base stats (while uncommon title effects like skill enhancements would stay in a misc/etc column).

Well, we can work on one, but unless we make a separate parameter for each stat, it won't work.

I've thought about this before but the sheer effort involved kept me away. I also thought that Titles should be coupled somehow with the pages in Category:Enchant_Status_Modifiers.

Ironically I did something like this in the past, however I never found A way of making it scalable for a large number of different stats so I just gave up on it. You can find it at the bottom of my user page here

Ah! This is close!

The sorting algorithm is evaluating the individual values as strings instead of integers, though. I found that Template:EquipList appears to sort by integer and perhaps a new template based off of that (only adding more columns) would do the job. However, I cannot even begin to comprehend the code filled with pipes and brackets. Can't we write our own javascript and upload it to this site?

Sylfaen (talk)20:03, 2 June 2013

Javascript can only be added by moderators+.

You may propose a script to be appended to the current scripts.

..Do you think they would add a script for this purpose or does it seem too much like reinventing the wheel? Come to think of it, I'm probably better off trying to learn how to write in brackets and pipes, huh? (Out of curiosity, what is the "pipes and brackets" language called?)

This is probably the "sheer effort" Angevon was talking about. o.o

Well, yeah, the script is quite unnecessary, since we have Template:Fns, which should allow the table to sort properly. You'd have to add it to every entry, though.

 
 

I think I might have broke the table more then I fixed it but it's now using the Fns template.
Also the reason I said it wasn't scalable is because Mabi has a large number of attributes, take the enchant search engine for example their would be a column for each attribute on the page, which would warp whatever page the table gets put on.

...So. Template:Fns stands for forced numerical sorting and not functions. Whenever I get confirmed by this wiki (which I assume grants me permission to create/modify userpages), would it be fine if I updated the table, if needed?

And thanks for your time.

Go ahead, I could never be bothered finishing that table anyway.
Also your going to need a fair amount of contributions before you can create your own user page, see the Wiki_Policy for details.
