New York Times index
I see the amazing work you are doing to harmonize all the NYT articles. Is the plan to eventually speedy delete all the italicized redirects from the index? It would clean up the index. Are we going to migrate lower case headlines from "Twain and yacht disappear" at sea to "Twain and Yacht Disappear at Sea" as part of the harmonization effort? RAN (talk) 13:26, 27 February 2024 (UTC)


 * I think the appropriate next steps are
 * leave the redirects to avoid linkrot if external sources link there
 * migrate lowercase headlines
 * migrate articles from Portal:The New York Times and replace the table of articles with a prominent link to The New York Times; the portal can continue to index related works and so forth
 * ensure all articles are in the appropriate year/month/day subpages
 * ensure all issues with article subpages have a page which indexes the articles
 * ensure all issues are linked on the base page
 * replace the header periodical with a normal header (which means redirects won't be included in the index)
 * I don't have immediate plans to work on this, but I'll probably get around to it at some point—or you could, if you're interested! —CalendulaAsteraceae (talk • contribs) 19:15, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

Automated-index versus manual-indexing for example for Brooklyn Eagle
Are we going to have both, one at Portal:Brooklyn Eagle and one at Brooklyn Eagle. You switched Brooklyn Eagle to manual-indexing from the automated-index. Whenever I encounter a manual-index and automated-index, the article count if off because not everyone adds to the manual index. RAN (talk) 23:05, 27 February 2024 (UTC)


 * We don't need to create portals for every newspaper. Portal:The New York Times exists because it's mentioned in other works and is a very well-known paper.
 * While manual indexes are less complete, they're also better-organized and easier to use. FWIW, this PetScan should get you most of the Brooklyn Eagle pages that aren't linked from the main page. —CalendulaAsteraceae (talk • contribs) 23:37, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

Is there a standardized way newspaper articles are named and aggregated?

 * See Portal:Newspapers

We have automated aggregation, we have manual aggregation into both a list and as a table that can be sorted, we have a calendar matrix. For naming articles, we have the bare name of the article title vs. the year and the article title vs. the full date and the article title. We have full pages and we have clipped articles.
 * New York Times (had automated aggregation, now a redirect) vs The New York Times (now an index showing only years) vs Portal:The New York Times (manual aggregation in a table)
 * The Washington Post same with The New York Tribune as a sortable table
 * The San Francisco Call as a manually created bulleted list.
 * The Indianapolis News and the New York Post as a calendar index.
 * Brooklyn Eagle sorted by year, changed by User:CalendulaAsteraceae from the automated style to the manual style of year aggregation. See: automated aggregation of the Brooklyn Eagle
 * Jersey Journal sorted by year, changed by User:CalendulaAsteraceae from the automated style to the manual style of year aggregation. See: automated aggregation of the Jersey Journal

There a half dozen different ways that newspapers are aggregated. If you go to Category:Newspapers published in the United States and click on a few, you can see six different ways that articles are aggregated, there are manual bulleted lists, automated aggregated lists, manual sortable tables, there are empty calendar indexes like New York Post, and a few other one-off experiments. There are lists and charts with annotations and summaries of the articles, and ones with just titles. Some article titles have no dates, some have years, some have full dates. Articles themselves are a mixture of djvu files, jpg index pages, raw unformatted ASCII text, and formatted Unicode/HTML text.
 * The North Star (Rochester) as a manually created list with year headers (CalendulaAsteraceae style).
 * The Argus a manually created list with unique format by CalendulaAsteraceae

Lacuna
What is our rule for lacuna in scans? Another editor told me we cannot have entries with lacuna, they become excerpts, which are banned. I see lacuna differently, transcribe as much as you can, display the scan. Maybe someone in the future will have access to a different edition of the newspaper. Maybe the source material will be rescanned. If it is an important document, we should preserve what we can.

How do I make corrections to the djvu file?
See for example History_of_the_Municipalities_of_Hudson_County,_New_Jersey,_1630-1923/Volume_3/Freudenberg,_Arthur_Oscar, how would I fix errors in the text? Is the text housed at Commons? I have only dealt with the text that is right on the page here. --RAN (talk) 18:28, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
 * There are page numbers in square brackets to the left of the text. When you click one of them, you get to the page, e. g. when you click on [729] in the above mentioned article on A. S. Freudenberg, you get to Page:History of the Municipalities of Hudson County (1924), Vol. 3.djvu/461. On the right there is the scanned page and on the left there is the editable text. Then you simply click the edit button and the rest is easy. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 18:39, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
