What is the policy on alphabetising names, specifically last names with various prefixes, like de, von, Mac, Mc etc.? I'm guessing that for a BE wiki, de, von and other non-English prefixes should be taken literally as is, i.e., alphabetised under "d", "v" etc. But what about English prefixes Mac and Mc. I heard that they are sometimes disregarded, putting, say McElroy under "E". What is the wiki policy?
