==Alphabetic order==
''This [[Help:Alphabetic order|section]] appears in [[Help:Page name]].''

The system applies [[w:Alphabetical order|alphabetical order]] only in page names, namely in the following features:
*[[Special:Allpages]]
*[[Help:Category|categories]]

They are in Unicode order: the range 32-127 corresponds to [[w:ASCII|ASCII]], for more characters see [[s:Transwiki:Table of Unicode characters, 128 to 999|Table of Unicode characters, 128 to 999]], etc.

Thus we have the following partial list showing the order:

!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@
<br>ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_'
<br>abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~
<br>¡¢£¤¥¦§¨©ª«­®¯°±²³´µ•¸¹º»¼½¾¿

Note in particular that "Z" comes before "a", and "z" before "é". The blank space within a page name is treated as an underscore, and therefore comes after the capitals, and before the lower case letters. However, a "blank space" after the name comes before any character. Sometimes a special character looks like a regular letter, but has a special code anyway.

Thus we have the order PC, PCX, PC Bruno, PCjr, Κύρια Σελίδα.
