Order of templates in table

Hi everyone.

I've taken the liberty of creating a template for Alan Ayckbourn plays and I've added it to this table. However, it's come to my attention that the templates on this table appear to be in a pretty random order. Is there any reason for this?

If not, would it help if I or someone else rearranged it into some kind of order?

External link templates

I have just created a new category Category:Theatre external link templates. It includes four templates to link to the Internet Broadway Database and currently two templates to link to the Internet Off-Broadway Database. Note that with the Internet Broadway Database templates, you probably want to use the Show one rather than Title, since Title only links to a single production and that Show links to all productions of a particular play or musical. I just created the Internet Off-Broadway Database Venue template today, and I've only used it on a couple of venue pages so far, but it could stand to be used more. I will probably create an Off-Broadway name template but it's a little different since the database doesn't seem to have number codes for people's names, just does a text search--Larrybob (talk) 08:35, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
