New template: Alphabetize
Historically, lists and galleries have attempted to be alphabetical. For the most part, they have remained somewhat intact in remaining alphabetical. In a lot of other cases, this is not exactly true, which is where this template comes into play. This template, to be used in sections of pages, indicates that a list should be made alphabetical. It is significantly different from because rewriting a page generally adds to or removes content, and requires a type of reactional thinking to form NEW content. To make a section alphabetical, it requires moving around pre-existing content. This should lead to a higher level of consistency among articles, and greater ease for readers to navigate pages.

The template would look like this:  It has been requested that this be re-organized to be in alphabetical order.

Support

 * 1) Per proposal. Would be weird if the guy that made it didn't support it...
 * 2) Seems a perfectly reasonable way to call attention to a specific issue to me.
 * 3) Not THAT unreasonable.

Oppose

 * 1) - I'm going to say the same thing here as I did in our DMs about this.  does the same thing. We don't need another template for this. Rewriting doesn't always mean adding or removing content, it could mean reorganizing content as well.
 * 2) - I know I've griped about something similar to this, but it's ultimately a semantic issue and, at most, a small quibble. Slightly altering the current templates to potentially reflect such cases would work somewhat better than a whole new template that all but says the same thing. Plus Alex makes a good point regarding what a rewrite entails.
 * 3) Per all.
 * 4) - Trig, sorry but I'm going to have to agree with Grammaticus and Alex. Alphabetizing isn't needed in all cases. For instance, with characters in spin-off titles, Mario should always come first and foremost, as he is the series' titular character.
 * 5) I don't see why we need to make such specific templates. As Alex95 said,  is a perfectly suitable alpabetization notice.
 * 6) Actually on second thought, using just the rewrite template works better. Per all.
 * 7) Per all.
 * 8) Unnecessary and redundant. Per all.

Comments
i said that the borders of the template is too thick and it's inconsistent with the rest of the templates in its fashion. 23:38, August 1, 2019 (EDT)


 * @Owen, I don't think you're supposed to just outright remove your initial vote - to my knowledge it's preferred that you strike through your initial vote and explain why your changed it in your new vote. -- 01:42, August 2, 2019 (EDT)
