understanding and appreciation of a creature that i would have no knowledge or interest in otherwise. I would like to say that it takes a damn good teacher to get others interested in what they teach and i for one, if only in a rudimentary and general way have found the subject of Krill and sorrounding issues of ecology and environment fascinating. I think that says a lot about your willingness to let others participate in something which you obviously have great knowledge in and could easily have been a lot less humble with. At some point i will put up some informtion on my home page so at least people know a little more about me. Am going to try to extend the article on Ice-algae so any info you may have would be good. I hope the article on
Antartic Krill gets featured as i think it is now very good.

and 100-year-old ethnological references: I've been annotating these for what they are. As you may notice, I've also been careful to note where other-named wiki-articles are found. When I do an article, I try to add appropriazte categories (otherwise the article is pretty much an 'orphan'. This list should probably be at least re-arranged to separate the promising articles from the unpromising. Question: are my annotations helpful? And see this template (know anything about it, should I use it?):
786:. I am interested in also helping to increase the number of links to wikipedia from the Project Gutenberg catalog (of which I am an editor). A little work has been done to do this in a systematic way, but so far it has only gone through the first couple letter of the alphabet, and is quite slow and tedious. Lists such as you have created could help make this a little easier. Do you have any suggestions for a way to collaberate on this?
861:
Yes, you can find a decent amount of biographical material in the texts at
Project Gutenberg. There are some texts which are entirely biographical in nature; and there are also many which contain a brief biography of the main author at the beginning. In my personal experience, trying to locate, edit,

Specifically, I was interested in some way of noting what
Knowledge articles you have added a project gutenberg author template to, so that I can make a corresponding link to that article from the Project Gutenberg online catalog, if it does not exist already. I tried going through your edit history
252:
Just would like to state that i have very much enjoyed being involved in a project of this nature. To see the speed of co-operation between various people was (Uwe, Lupo and
Salleman and all others) fantastic. It was a complete buzz to go off researching about a scientific subject and coming to some

I have already spent many hours checking many dozens of authors' names for wikipedia articles. If I were to go through a list as mentioned above, I would be redundantly checking most of those names all over again. What I was interested in was some method of reviewing a list of wikipedia articles to

section of the website, one can find all the catalog information in rdf/xml format. Author names could be generated from that. However, there are consistency issues. Not all author names are in the form "Last, First Middle" For example, some pseudonyms have added after the name, some languages use

I've just finished importing this, but would like to place google links next to each name. The only problem is the spaces in the name have to be replaced with + or %20 for the links to work. Have you done this sort of thing before? If so, could you convert this list into something like that, which

Just an update here. I've followed up on the idea of keeping my own local list of wikipedia articles which contain template:gutenberg author. I suspect that might work best in the end, rather than asking other users to take extra steps to let me know about pages to link to. I've also got a list of
869:
to assist me. However, as I look at it, I don't think it's useful for my purposes. One issue is that it is sorted by first name instead of last name, but I don't think that is possible to change. Also, as you point out one can get the same list just by doing a "what links here" for the template. I

I just discovered this list too. I'm not quite sure how I'll use it, but certainly, I'll use it as a guide to cherry pick the more obvious undone articles. The present 2004 list has lots and lots of unpromising gazetteer entries, particularly those of the
British Raj; similarly, dictionary entries

with
Encarta or Britannica? There is certainly enough material, the Jewish has over 15,000 entries and the Catholic has over 12,000 entries. The music encyclopedia has over 46,000. These projects have been languishing a bit because of the scope is so large and most people may not know where to
885:
I agree with you that an external link in the nature of "Works by so-and-so" is better than a list of links to individual works. This keeps the external links section more tightly focused on the subject of the article and does not require updating to stay in sync with titles at PG.
897:

Oh, and a quick comment about the 'Compare' page: Could you put on a 'Save' button? And would it be possible to put both the rendered page and the code? (I think it's easier to spot the gutenberg template on the rendered page).

about making changes. On the
Untagged images pages, you have been suggesting changes. Feel free to go ahead and do them. It will save us all time. If you mess up, it will be corrected, so you don't need to worry.
819:
No, we do not make biographies of authors at
Project Gutenberg. I belive any effort to do so could not be as thorough as the present method of linking to wikipedia as a means of providing such biographical material.

It is perhaps also worth noting that not all the authors represented in Project Gutenberg are encyclopedia-worthy. There are many for whom it would difficult to find out anything about other than their names.
