====Sorting Tables of Terms====
Suppose you were to make a sortable table mapping {{ST|-}} characters to the [[Realm]] they inhabit. Given that Realms are visited sequentially, it is more logical for the "Realm" column to sort according to their in-game order, rather than alphabetical order. That is, the order should be Forest Realm, Snow Realm, Ocean Realm, Fire Realm. This can be accomplished by adding entries to [[Data:Sort Values]] and using the <code>sort</code> parameter on the term.
<pre>
{|class="wikitable sortable"
! Character
! Realm
|-
| {{Term|ST|Gage}}
| {{Term|ST|Forest Realm|sort=Realm}}
|-
| {{Term|ST|Steem}}
| {{Term|ST|Snow Realm|sort=Realm}}
|-
| {{Term|ST|Carben}}
| {{Term|ST|Ocean Realm|sort=Realm}}
|-
| {{Term|ST|Embrose}}
| {{Term|ST|Fire Realm|sort=Realm}}
|}
</pre>
'''Result:'''
{|class="wikitable sortable"
! Character
! Realm
|-
| {{Term|ST|Gage}}
| {{Term|ST|Forest Realm|sort=Realm}}

| {{Term|ST|Steem}}
| {{Term|ST|Snow Realm|sort=Realm}}
|-
| {{Term|ST|Carben}}
| {{Term|ST|Ocean Realm|sort=Realm}}
|-
| {{Term|ST|Embrose}}
| {{Term|ST|Fire Realm|sort=Realm}}
|}
