/*
 * Adds sort keys to tables with a "The" in front of a cell's data and adds a sort key for that cell without the The.
 * May have quite a bit of false positives if any non-title begins with "The". Please check over results.
 * I strongly recommend you include this with other AutoEd modules according to the instructions at [[Wikipedia:AutoEd/Customization]].
 * If not, this will still be usable standalone, but still.
