Hi,

It's probably not the most important thing to research but just out of
curiosity... Did anybody compare the frequency of {{DEFAULTSORT}} usage in
Wikipedias in different languages?

I just realized that in Japanese it is _probably_ used more frequently than
in other languages, maybe because sorting by Japanese Kanji characters is
suboptimal (that's just a guess—if you know better, please tell me).

By the same logic, I'd guess that it's used less in Russian and Ukrainian,
because they have the custom of titling articles about people with the last
name first.

Again, it's not the most important thing, but it could inform some editing
design in the future.
