Im not sure who took so many care in reordering the game names alphabetically but good work :). Anyway, now that i added the "sorting" feature to the tables (by clicking in the arrows at the table headers) it can be seen very well if there is some game name incorrectly ordered, the proceure to check it is: 1) reload the whole page, because we want to "reset" all he columns sortings to defaults. 2) click in the arrow at the "name" column 1 time... and see if some of the horizontal rows have moved. If they moved it means there is a game incorrectly ordered. The procedure to fix it is pretty much the same but start by clicking in "edit" in one of the sections, then click in the arrows, if needed reset the sortings again by clicking in "show preview", move some row of the table up/down by copypasting them, reset it again, etc... when the game list is long is needed to repeat it a few times to realize which game is the culprit and where needs to be located. You know... the final goal is that if we reload the page and we click in the "name" arrow the games should stay in his position (it means the order how are written in the page matches with the sorting methods used by wiki software internally)--[[User:Sandungas|Sandungas]] ([[User talk:Sandungas|talk]]) 12:53, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

==LibCrypt Protected games==
At some point we need to indicate in the compatibility list the games that are libcrypt protected, there is a tag <nowiki>{{notes|libcrypt}}</nowiki> already made with that purpose that allows to include a "tooltip" text description of the problem + a link to the page dedicated to [[PS1 Custom Patches]] where there is lot more room to talk about every specific patch, to add download links, or whatever.

Help updating the list to the new style

We need to replace all the apparences of template {{?}} in the list by either {{available}} or {{notavailable}}. Thats the minimal info required for a game to indicate to other wiki readers in which regions it was released. The template {{?}} doesnt indicates anything and is completly pointless, please dont use it anymore, we need to eradicate it from the list
