Index talk:The Green Bag (1889–1914), Volume 01.pdf

How to split each volume
Each volume looks to have 12 issues, one per month. There are several articles in each issue, along with a continuing series of recurring sections like "Legal Antiquities" or "Book Notices". Pages are numbered consecutively through all issues in a volume, from page 1 of first issue to page 566 (say) of issue 12.

There is one index per volume, with entries like
 * Dip into my Law Books, A|234

No index per issue.

Given the recurring sections, and the shortness of the individual articles, I don't think a separate mainspace page is warranted for each of these.

Currently thinking just have
 * The Green Bag (1889–1914) with index to all the volumes
 * The Green Bag (1889–1914)/Volume 1 with index to the issues of vol. I
 * The Green Bag (1889–1914)/Volume 1/Number 1
 * The Green Bag (1889–1914)/Volume 1/Number 2
 * The Green Bag (1889–1914)/Volume 1/Number 12
 * The Green Bag (1889–1914)/Volume 1/Number 12

 * I have no particular preference, and that seems like a fine way forward. BD2412 T 01:43, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
