I appreciate separating the "Suggested parameters" and "Optional parameters" for most templates. However, that makes using w:Template:Track listing via the wizard more awkward to use and edit. By separating its parameters into two categories, the suggested parameters would be above the optional ones when the template is inserted. titlen and lengthn are currently the suggested parameters and organized by numerals. However, optional ones, like writern and extran, would be below the supposed last/final number of titlen and lengthn, e.g. title20 and length20. The same can be said about other language versions of the template. I had to manually sort reorganize the parameters after the template insertion. Does the sorting issue matter much enough to resolve it, or what else can be done about it?

Hi @George Ho. This is indeed a tricky case. Do you think changing the template to make all the parameters optional is better? I don't know if TemplateWizard can be made smart enough to solve this case.
Unless the coding is technically too complicated, I don't mind merging the "suggested" column into the "optional column". Indeed, re-sorting makes parameters easier to use, but the "optional" column would become lengthy. Nevertheless, let's test that out and see whether the change works productively.
To be clear, I was thinking of changing that for this specific template in its TemplateData. I don't think merging "Optional" and "Suggested" parameters into one group for all templates is a good idea. I have heard feedback that users like having those parameters be separate.
Oh... I don't mean merging two into one for all, which I agree with you about. You can change the template's TemplateData if you want.
