On Fedora 23/Nautilus 3.18.5, the entries in the "Scripts" context (sub)menu is reversed for some reason.

E.g. in my ~/.local/share/nautilus/scripts directory I have scripts such as:

audacious-play.sh
...
geany-edit.sh 

(and others)
When right-clicking on a file and opening the Scripts sub-menu, I see menu entries for all my scripts but listed in reversed alphabetical order which is really weird, i.e. I see:

geany-edit.sh 
...
audacious-play.sh

I thought it could be a configuration problem in my setup, so scanned available documentation, looked into dconf-editor configurable parameters for nautilus, looked into ~/.config/nautilus  - but can't find any parameter or hint thereof to fix this weird behavior.

I tried running nautilus as another user (e.g. root), added a couple of scripts in the user's scripts directory, and found the same problem (reverse ordering of entries), so this seems to be a nautilus weirdness. Google is not showing similar issue reports so I'm puzzled.

When displaying the 'Scripts' items, folders inside the scripts directory are also listed as if they where regular file entries and are impacted by the reverse ordering as well 
(treating subdirectories as regular script items was already observed in 2002: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74459 )
