<p>New page: &#039;=== Collation === ; Title : Collation settings $wgCategoryCollation and $smwgEntityCollation ; Type : Change to MediaWiki and Semantic MediaWiki settings in mw:Manual:LocalSettings....&#039;</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>=== Collation ===<br /> ; Title<br /> : Collation settings $wgCategoryCollation and $smwgEntityCollation<br /> ; Type<br /> : Change to MediaWiki and Semantic MediaWiki settings in [[mw:Manual:LocalSettings.php]]<br /> ; Reason<br /> : Collation - sorting pages numerically<br /> : Recently the [https://wiki.guildwars2.com/index.php?title=Property:Has_item_value&amp;curid=90873&amp;diff=2341597&amp;oldid=575378 Property:Has item value] was changed to &lt;code&gt;text&lt;/code&gt; (previously &lt;code&gt;number&lt;/code&gt;) resulting in e.g. &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{#ask: [[Has item cost::&gt;574]] [[Has vendor::Historian Vermoth]]}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; only returning #vendor19 which is the 574 Karma item only ignoring other higher costs e.g. [[Historian Vermoth#Items offered|42000 Karma]] - &lt;code&gt;574 (Karma)&lt;/code&gt; being greater than &lt;code&gt;42000 (Karma)&lt;/code&gt; (5 vs 4).<br /> : This would also fix nav ordering e.g. [[Hunter&#039;s Journal]] with the journals currently being sorted &lt;code&gt;1, 10, 11, ... 19, 2, 3, 4, ... 9&lt;/code&gt; instead of &lt;code&gt;1, 2, ... 19&lt;/code&gt;.<br /> ; Links<br /> : [[mw:Manual:$wgCategoryCollation]], [[smw:Help:$smwgEntityCollation]], [[Guild Wars 2 Wiki talk:Requests for technical administration#Sorting pages with numbers]].<br /> ; Possible pitfalls<br /> : &amp;mdash;<br /> ; Notes<br /> : For $wgCategoryCollation the default is &lt;code&gt;uppercase&lt;/code&gt;, while $smwgEntityCollation has the default of &lt;code&gt;identity&lt;/code&gt; and the SMW page assumes that both settings are the same.<br /> : Numeric sorting only works for unbroken sequences of digits. Digits separated by commas, periods, or spaces are treated as separate numbers.<br /> <br /> ;Installation steps<br /> : Swapping $wgCategoryCollation and $smwgEntityCollation to &lt;code&gt;numeric&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;uca-en-u-kn&lt;/code&gt;. Both settings should receive the same value. &lt;code&gt;uca-&lt;langcode&gt;-u-kn&lt;/code&gt; has language-specific adjustments and numeric sorting.<br /> <br /> :$wgCategoryCollation (introduced with MW version 1.17.0)<br /> :* Write &lt;code&gt;$wgCategoryCollation = &#039;uca-en-u-kn&#039;;&lt;/code&gt; in [[mw:Manual:LocalSettings.php]] and then run [[mw:Manual:updateCollation.php]] for your change to take effect.<br /> :* After changing this option, you must run [[mw:Manual:updateCollation.php]] to recompute sort keys for all pages, or your categories will be sorted inconsistently.<br /> :* Updating collations is slow and may take several hours on large wikis.<br /> :* &lt;code&gt;uca-default&lt;/code&gt;/&lt;code&gt;uca-xx&lt;/code&gt; collations require the [https://php.net/book.intl PHP intl extension]<br /> :* If you are using Varnish, Squid or file cache, you may have to purge category pages after running updateCollation.php to see the results.<br /> :* If you update or recompile your version of PHP, you must run updateCollation.php --force.<br /> <br /> :$smwgEntityCollation (introduced with SMW version 3.0.0)<br /> :* Write &lt;code&gt;$smwgEntityCollation = uca-en-u-kn;&lt;/code&gt; in [[mw:Manual:LocalSettings.php]] file after the enableSemantics() call<br /> :* [https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Maintenance_script_updateEntityCollation.php Maintenance script &quot;update­Entity­Collation.php&quot;] has to be run after changing the stetting of this configuration parameter.</div>
