Alphabetization of Newspaper Titles #94

Closed ccolliga closed 3 years ago

ccolliga commented 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]

Newspaper titles sometimes begin with an article (such as "the in English, or Le in French) and sometimes don't. It is practice to maintain the article in the title when naming and citing them. Therefore I have tried to do so. But, this makes alphabetization an issue, as lots of papers get alphabetized, and therefore slower to find, by their article. A number of the Wilde site pages involve some kind of alphabetization of the newspaper titles, and so this is an issue that affects a number of pages.

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

Could we alphabetize the newspaper titles by the first name in the title following the article.

Describe alternatives you've considered A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

Not sure what alternatives there are.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

I have provided screenshots of sites in French and English that deal with this issue (in different ways).

There is probably something useful I can do here. @ccolliga can you provide a list of initial articles to ignore for each of the languages?

Now that sfu-dhil/alfred#5 is done, this should be possible.
