There's another problem: "John Aylesbury" (DE), "Mauro Cateni" (IT), "Peter Rasmussen" (DK) and others more are not real persons but fictional names. In these cases I'd lean forward to sort "Mauro Cateni" (e.g.) under M. -- Now, as far as I can see, we haven't applied a standard consequently yet. That's making it difficult. For sure, doing it from now on would make it necassary to re-name numerous pages and alter x internal links. I'm aware of that, but have no clue at the moment. [[User:TseHa|TseHa]]

:Bill, wow, the categories look extremely promising, thanks! TseHa, good points! I have long thought we should have some sort of pipe maker article naming convention that can accommodate the main variables. Most of the articles are Firstname Lastname. Perhaps we could also include other names that pipe maker is working under using redirects to the main article, with those also categorized so they appear in the category lists. Would that work? I don't know what listing possibilities there are within the categories, but perhaps Bill can come up with the best solution for us. I am very glad to have all the help for you both, and just sorry I was not better organized from the start. Now we have a little work to clean up once we get this on the right track! --[[User:Sethile|sethile]] 16:19, 30 March 2008 (EDT)
