MediaWiki - sort simple list

$
0
0

I have a basic MediaWiki installation with several categories (which is sorted automatically). In each category I have several links to articles. These links are listed in a simple star (*) list, which is not sorted automatically.

I know I can use a table but 1) that seems counter-intuitive to me, 2) I want the list of articles to be sorted automatically rather than having a interactive table where the user has to sort manually and 3) I want a clean, easy list without borders, preferably with that preceding circle. I could also use sub-categories, but because I'm a weird duck (lazy or maybe just adamant to solve this using lists as I feel this should be doable) I want to explore this route first.

Is there a somewhat easy solution for this? Either with css, js, html(?), extension or other? I have extremely little experience in this matter and would have to ask that any answers is given in layman's term (e.g. solution/step-by-step guide on silver platter, if at all possible).

What I want is for:

* [[Example article 1]]* [[Article 2]]* [[Etc]]

To become:

  • Article 2
  • Etc
  • Example article 1

Instead of:

  • Example article 1
  • Article 2
  • Etc
