IndexPanopticon → Alphabetising Slitheen surnames
Spoilers are strongly policed here.
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.

So, I'm checking Category:Slitheen, and the alphabetisation is all over the place. The Ninth Doctor mentions something about hyphenated surnames, so do we organise them by "Passameer-Day" "Lutiven-Day" "Sharlaveer-Slam" or just by Slitheen?

I don't think that the "branches" (the Hangle-Wang Branch and the Passameer-Day Branch) should be categorised under S, now, should they? -- Tybort (talk page) 00:05, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

World War Three directly tells us that Slitheen is the family name. The very clear implication, therefore, is that Raxacoricofallapatorians have a name structure very like people who speak English. This means that you should just slap {{NameSort}} on the articles and be done with it.

In fact, never mind. I see what's happened. No one has done any sort of alphabetising. I'll take care of it with the bot right now.
