local export = {}
local u = mw.ustring.char
local a, b = u(0xF000), u(0xF001)

local oneChar = {
	["ç"] = "c" .. a, ["ê"] = "e" .. a, ["ğ"] = "g" .. a, ["ı"] = "i", ["î"] = "i" .. b, ["ş"] = "s" .. a, ["û"] = "u" .. a
}

function export.makeSortKey(text, lang, sc)
	text = mw.ustring.gsub(mw.ustring.lower(mw.ustring.gsub(text, "I", "ı")), "i", "i" .. a) -- ensure "i" comes after "ı"
	
	return mw.ustring.upper(mw.ustring.gsub(text, ".", oneChar))
