What do you mean I neglected to provide a reason? We discussed this at length at

Furthermore, there is clearly not a consensus to order the table of this or any other officeholder alphabetically. This was explained to you at

As I mentioned at
WP:NAVBOX
: "Alphabetical ordering does not provide any additional value to a category containing the same article links." (there's already [[:Category:Los Angeles City Attorneys]])
Examples of high-profile templates (since there's no equivalent to article class for templates, I think high-profile subjects are appropriate to use for comparison) in chronological order:
Examples in chronological order using just surname (probably because full name would be too much clutter):
So the bottom line is: template should be in chronological order, then an indication of the term served (either # or dates, despite a couple examples using # order, I think dates would be more useful to readers), then use the first name (if it doesn't make the template too cluttered).
Also, @
WP:Bold is not necessary. Please attempt to create a consensus on the talk page before reverting (the issue was already discussed at Talk:Los Angeles City Attorney#Request for WP:Third opinion). Also, please add the suggested dates (or # order) before trying to argue about whether or not the addition of the first name would be too much "clutter" since that's a subjective term that can only really be determined visually after the changes are made.

Oh, good grief. We have consensus now! We got two editors here and two more on the article saying that chrono is the way to go. Only one person (you) wants alphabetical. The place to go is not RfC, it is to ANI or AN/3RR for your project disruption.

Hi. I restored the version with full names because not having them is just plain silly. This is the first step in
