Forum:Creating sortable tables

Hi Robin,

Thanks for your help the bdm page is cool. Is there any way to create something like that for other categories, like "Members of Irish Parliament pre-1801"? Thanks, Alberto


 * That could well be a simple category - and if the person is on Wikipedia it will probably be in place: Category:Members of the Parliament of Ireland (pre-1801). More generally, though, the creation of pages like the bdm or the front page listings needs the creation of a Property using Semantic MediaWiki. I'm a mere beginner with that stuff, so I'll copy this discussion to the Forum:Help desk and we can try to get an expert involved. There are sure to be other contributors interested in the answers. -- Robin Patterson (Talk) 21:34, November 18, 2015 (UTC)
