      I think we should reconsider the sort name style guideline with regard to names like...

      The Alan Parsons Project
      The Jimi Hendrix Experience

      The current guideline says they should be sorted as...

      Parsons, Alan, The, Project
      Hendrix, Jimi, The, Experience

      As discussed in the edit below some of us believe it should be...

      Parsons, Alan, Project, The
      Hendrix, Jimi, Experience, The

      As articles, like The, An, A, are the least important aspects of the name when sorting.

      Please see the discussion in this edit...
