Talk:List of people by name: name Thomas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Thomas as given name

I dislike this category. It sorts badly, and I believe it confuses people. People would expect to find Thomas a Kempis either with the rest of the "Thomas, A"s or with the "Thomas, K" people.

It also tempts people to add people that are normally alphabetized by their surname, such as Thomas Ravelli, who I just deleted. But for now, I've just reformatted it to sort better. --Alvestrand 16:58, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

It's gone.

Please make further comments in the wider forum at Talk:List of people by name#People well known without reference to a Surname, where this is being duplicated.
