Talk:List of court cases involving the American Civil Liberties Union

Untitled
It would be nice if this article gave a brief statement about each case (the name tells us nothing), so readers would have some idea of what each case was about without having to go to each case's article. It would be especially helpful for someone looking for a particular case/subject whose name they don't know. -R. fiend 17:05, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
 * The article is a “List” of cases involving the ACLU. It suffices to present a case listing by presenting the names of the contending parties – that is the standard in case listing! What you request is a summary of cases; these would be subject to a lot of editing by viewers or editors; it would quickly lead to a lengthy fragmented argumentative article.

Is this list complete?

Alphabetization
I've added a list in alphabetical order. I understand it is a hassle to add cases twice, but I think the utility outweighs the hassle. See also Wikipedia_talk:Categorization, and also Categories_for_discussion/Log/2008_April_12 which more or less rules out the use of categories for this group of cases. Categories would provide an alphabetical grouping ... so, since that is out, an alpha list here is a good alternative. Also, I note that the two lists (chrono and alpha) are not identical. But that is a symptom of the underlying problem (i.e. that more work needs to be done to make them complete) than an issue with including the alpha list. --Noleander (talk) 18:41, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
