Database can use magic power while sorting wish list?

I wanted to sort my wish list on rating, but I just noticed this recently but the database doesn't sort it on the rating that the series has (bayesian or avarage).
For some reason the database sort it on my own rating, I don't know why or how the database can do this, but it's rather strange for sorting it on rating for something that you haven't read yet and how can the database do this?
So could it be possible to sort it on the rating that the series has? 😮

There is a way to do it... but not in the wish list itself. What I do is I use advanced genre search to show the titles in a certain list then I click on the rating column heading to sort them by rating.
But I agree; it would be nice to be able to do this without having to leave your lists.

I also tried this, but the problem is, it's bayesian estimate ratings, I need them in average rating otherwise the series with lower views and the new ones ends up in a no rating zone or the 7.23 -7.77 interval (most underrated manga are hanging in this region, because they can't climb over the bayesian estimate region). This is rather annoying, you miss a lot of masterpieces, just because they've got a low vote count (For example: a series has a bayesian rating of 7.34, because their were only 9 votes, but they all voted 10/10. And opposite example would be a series has a bayesian rating of 7.36, because their were only 6 votes, all of them were 3/10 and 4/10. (I don't remember the ratings exactly, but such series are easy to find in the database)).
So I want to have an advanced search that would give an extra column (with the average rating), next to the bayesian rating when you get the search results. 😛
Also, don't understand me wrong, the bayesian rating is still correcter if you got a lot of votes.
Anyway, might it be better to make a seperate topic for this? 😕
