Wanted list and Order lists currently are sorted differently for item name and
color name.

As a result, it's been inconvenient to match parts from order placed to wanted
lists.

Example for item name:

Given a "Plate 1 x 8" and a "Plate 1 x 10":
- In wanted lists, "Plate 1 x 10" will appear before "Plate 1 x 8" (strict alphabetical
order)
- In order lists, "Plate 1 x 8" will appear before "Plate 1 x 12" (correct numerical
order)

Example for color name"

Given a "Reddish Brown" part and a "Pearl Gold" part:
- In wanted lists, the "Reddish Brown" part will appear before the "Pearl Gold"
part (plain colors first like in color selection drop down lists)
- In order lists, the "Pearl Gold" part will appear before the "Reddish Brown"
part (strict alphabetical order)

Now, I don't mind either of these couple of ordering (although I have a personal
preference for correct numerical order for item names and plain colors first)
but I'd like for both ordering to be consistent across the whole BrickLink
website.

Thank you for your consideration!

I think it would be useful to sort the wanted list by the quantity of items that
still need to be purchased = MAX(MINQTY - QTYFILLED, 0)

I made a mockup, check the image attached.

Ehm, on what screen is that?

I think I see that page less than I look at the forum.
So allthough I think it is good to have it there, there also should be a banner
on top the page until you have read the message.

Suggestion for improving Bricklink.
Make a search with a list of bricks possible.
If you have a list of brick codes, it would be very helpful to find the store
that owns the entire list or has the largest number of them.
Thanks for your attention.

Already exists.

Thank you very much everyone who promptly replied.
Obviously I did not understand how the wish list works, but now I will study
its functions...
