Can a sorting option be added to the "most Popular Surnames" section of Wikitree G2G? As it grows I think this would be more helpful than popularity ranking.

Not sure what page you're talking about.  There's this:
http://www.wikitree.com/articles/features/
But I think that's just number of new additions for the month.  You can use the find feature of your browser (ctrl-F) to find a particular surname on that page.
Surname statistics for the whole database would be interesting to see, though.
Here is the link. or click onto Surnames at the top of the page.

OK, I see.  You can use that to see all the questions for a particular surname.  Being able to sort/search that might be useful.  But you can use the search box near the top right of this page and get similar results with a few added where the name is mentioned, but it isn't tagged.
I agree, it would much more helpful if it was alphabetical.

Fred Gibson

Good point, Paul.

One thing you can do in the meantime: Navigate directly by creating the URL, e.g. to go to Remus questions, enter http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/tag/remus
