The article is then put at the end of the title. To illustrate: "The Arrest by Uys Krige" is listed as "Arrest, The by Uys Krige" under #A. Similarly, the original [[Afrikaans]] version ("Die Arrestasie") is listed as "Arrestasie, Die by Uys Krige", also under #A.

In most other languages (such as the other seven indigenous [[South African]] languages, including [[Sotho]], [[Xhosa]] and [[Zulu]],  and any European languages not listed above, such as Russian, Greek, Norwegian, etc), the full titles are listed exactly as they are, with beginning article where applicable, since the grammatical structure of most such languages are too complex and unfamiliar for us to apply this procedure consistently.
