“ I listed all PSM pages categorized as Category:Biographies of scientists and created links so that the pages open for editing to facilitate replacing the above category with Category:Biographical articles in Popular Science Monthly. ALSO, the link to the Index: page in the note portion of the header can also be removed because it unnecessarily duplicates the [Source] page tab. Thanks.— Ineuw talk 02:44, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi. One question. Shall categorization be done indexing [ [..|Surname] ] or [ [..|Surname, Name] ] ? ”

“ Ineuw talk 01:12, 13 December 2011 (UTC) PSM categorization in general I've been mulling over some points on categorization and want to take this opportunity to add some thoughts on the subject as User:Mpaa has taken an interest in organization of article categorization.
If there is an agreement on separating the PSM bio sketches, it would be best to name it "PSM biographical sketches". Some monthly issues contain additional biographical sketches to commemorate a recently deceased academic/scientist. This bio is not titled "Sketch ...". Most, but not all PSM biographies are of scientists. ”

“ As an example, compare this PAGE with your downloaded copy and see if it's not missing this image (among others) . — Ineuw talk 00:50, 17 December 2011 (UTC) The image is present in my downloaded copy... but that doesn't necessarily mean that the image would be present for WS purposes... For example, I have been (slowly and piecemeal-like) been copying images to Photoshop (saving individual pages and using an online OCR converter to "pull" the text) from V. 29 (Index of contributors section) of EB1911 that I downloaded from Google Books... ”

“ Thanks. I need some clarifications as to author name display preference in the main namespace. In cases where the articles use abbreviation and the full name is known, is it preferable to use the abbreviated name and create a redirect, or use the full name as is in the Author page? — Ineuw talk 11:26, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
PSM images For those who are looking for PSM images to be inserted in proofread pages, there is no need to mark pages as "Problematic". ”

“ We always use the standard and inserted {{smallrefs}} in the page footer. I don't know how symbols appear in transcluded articles when they are applied in subsequent pages, Also the main ns header wrapper includes the {{smallrefs}}.— Ineuw talk 04:30, 8 August 2013 (UTC) Volumes and correspondence categories I've created Category:Popular Science Monthly volumes and Category:Popular Science Monthly correspondence. ”

“ Progress report Hi. I highlight here an interesting template in Wikipedia that might be useful: Template:Progress box. --Mpaa (talk) 21:17, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
Sketch of a proposal Here is a first sketch of a proposal to be used as basis for discussion on Progress reporting.
The level of ambition is to be defined. Two views should be provided, one for Index namespace and one for Main namespace. Index:
The following figures shall be provided in a table (absolute) for both the whole PSM project and each Volume, Progress bar should report the progress in %. ”

“ Our time is not worth the hassle of a couple of old images. Eventually, they will end up in the public domain. As for Volume 75, it's not worth wasting your time because we'll need the complete volume in .djvu format uploaded to the commons. — Ineuw talk 03:38, 17 December 2011 (UTC) Good to go... better safe than sorry! Thanks, Londonjackbooks (talk) 12:24, 17 December 2011 (UTC) Changing PSM biography category. This post is a continuation of the above discussion on categorization and is mostly intended for User:Mpaa, but anyone interested can contribute as the editing is very fast. ”

“ One is the "development" view, the other is the "customer" view. We can divide the Progress Page in these 2 sections. --Mpaa (talk) 17:12, 9 November 2011 (UTC) Ok. I will start mine soon. My plan is this: I will first start by going through the volumes on Google Books and getting title, author, month and year information. Then I will get volume # and status for each article, followed by putting respective links in titles, authors, etc.- Tannertsf (talk) 18:56, 9 November 2011 (UTC) At this point I am a bit confused. What is your ultimate goal? ”

“ Bye--Mpaa (talk) 18:17, 17 December 2011 (UTC) Hi. Removing the first name was my mistake and please blame it on late night anal retention. By that time I functioned in a mechanical mode and should have quit editing. It doesn't really matter. — Ineuw talk 18:40, 17 December 2011 (UTC) New article title templates Five new PSM templates were added for monthly recurring articles. For speedy definition, their basic appearance are based on the {{PSMTitle}} template, and this can be later modified for a closer match to the original. ”

“ I bookmarked quite a few I want to proofread. StateOfAvon (talk) 05:43, 31 March 2012 (UTC) July 2012 featured text The first volume of the PSM is a candidate for featured status. While it only has one vote so far (see Wikisource:Featured text candidates) I have provisionally selected it for the July 2012 slot. You can see how the main page will look here. Does this look OK? ”

“ Previous in series: link part X+1 ... last article: notes = Previous in series: link N-1 If you happen to connect multi-part article, please follow this, so there will be consistency through PSM project.
There is always space for exemptions, in cases with special requirements. --Mpaa (talk) 08:58, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
Before you settle using this style of links, I urge you to look at the use of the {{PSM link}} with the John Stuart Mill series of articles and its links. ”

“ While you're gone, I am going to place here some additional ideas here, before you finalize.— Ineuw talk 00:01, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi. I have done and tested the links, with {{rh}}-style in the file you sent me for all articles whose series ended within Vol. 46. And Vol. 68. For the others, I will wait for the series to be completed. I mailed you issues in your file, now fixed, that I found during test-browsing in case you need to know. Bye. --Mpaa (talk) 23:02, 23 January 2012 (UTC) Obituaries Please refer to this post at Scriptorium as background info. ”
