How fine do you want them categorized for the ranking?

What's the population to be ranked?

The 4000 naked-eye-visible stars?

The stars within, say, 50 light years from Earth?

All 200-400 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy?

All the stars in some other galaxy?

Or did you have a list of items to be ranked that you decided not to share?

That would be a lot like asking us to seat a class of sixth graders alphabetically,

and then not telling us their names.

And how do we drag one star on top of another?

And if I do that here, how will you know about it?
