Even when using data-sort-type=number in the column header, text in front of a number in any cell breaks numerical sorting of that cell. Text after a number is not a problem if the sort order of a column is specified by using data-sort-type=number. Leading zeroes are not necessary for numerical sorting of a column.
The two most commonly used classes are "wikitable" and "wikitable sortable"; the latter allows the reader to sort the table by clicking on the header cell of any column. |+ caption Required for accessibility purposes on data tables, and placed only between the table start and the first table row. ! header cell Optional.
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).
Classes can also be used to collapse tables, so they are hidden by default. Use the class mw-collapsible to enable collapsing behaviour. Collapsible tables can be sortable, too, by also including the sortable class (see § Sortable tables). By default, a collapsible table begins expanded. To change this, add the additional class mw-collapsed.
Module:Sort table This template extends the functionality of {{ sort list }} to tables, so that tables in articles can be set with a default sorting, and have their rows manually shuffled around every time their data is updated.

Sorting can be done in separate files, such as using a DOS-prompt command: SORT myfile.DAT > myfile2.DAT, or else use a text-editor such as NoteTab, which has a modify-lines-sort option. Edit-tricks are most useful when multiple tables must be changed, then the time needed to develop complex edit-patterns can be applied to each table.
