Data-sort-value removals

Hi there 70.54.53.237! I've noticed you removing data-sort-values from filmography tables under various aliases, never leaving any explanations as to why. Perhaps you are unaware of how useful data-sort-values are, they allow sortable tables to properly sort titles in alphabetical order by ignoring common starting words like A or The at the beginning. This improves accessibility of the tables. It's considered a desirable asset, as explained in several places such as Filmography tables. It's fine if you yourself don't wish to add them but if you could please not remove them it would be much appreciated, as adding data-sort-values is time consuming & thus rather disheartening to see them removed seemingly on a whim. Thanks for your time! LooksGreatInATurtleNeck (talk) 16:55, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi there 70.54.53.237! Once again you removed data-sort-values (on Kathy Greenwood's article), without any reason given. I'm baffled why you would do that as none of your changes required the removal of that feature. Removing it without mentioning you did so also could be seen as questionable. Not only did you remove data-sort-values, you also messed up the year for her appearance in The Dating Guy. You'd merged it with her appearance in The Rick Mercer, making it seem she'd been in both series in 2009, 2013-2015, which is incorrect. Not sure why you made these changes. I've tried here & on your reply on my talk page to explain the value of data-sort-values to you. You've yet to give any reasoning for their removal. Please take on board what I've said, I'd really like to resolve this amicably. Take care, LooksGreatInATurtleNeck (talk) 17:07, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
