For these pages, the sort key should be the House name, system name, or whichever entity is declaring or enforcing the laws. --Eyvind 14:31, 14 February 2009 (MST)

What I mean is, when you add this category to a page you should add a sort key. For example, the The Laws of Rheinland starts with The which would be a useless word to sort alphabetically on. Therefore I used the sort key "Rheinland" which makes much more sense. As you can see in the category, The Laws of Rheinland is listed under R as it should. This is not as important for other pages such as Bretonian Charter of Interstellar Law since it already starts with Bretonia, or Laws of the Liberty Republic since Laws and Liberty start with the same letter. In case pages are moved, to more accurately sort pages (Laws would be sorted higher than Liebrty), and any other eventuality, we should put the appropriate sort-key in the category tag.
For example:
Another issue is what to name these pages, but I think we might as well go with the name they were given by the various factions rather than make them follow a uniform naming scheme.
