* '''Scan for HTML in titles and author names''' - I just ran across the title "''Afterword: William Tenn: The Swiftest Tortoise (Immodest Proposals <i>and</i> Here Comes Civilization)''." The project is to scan all titles, and perhaps author names, for "<" and ">" to see if they are HTML sequences. We may also want to scan for &something; sequences. --[[User:Marc Kupper|Marc Kupper]]|[[User talk:Marc Kupper|talk]] 01:47, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

*:We could certainly write a script, but quick Advanced Search on "Title contains > AND Title contains <" finds 102 Titles with embedded HTML, which may be sufficient for our purposes. [[User:Ahasuerus|Ahasuerus]] 02:13, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Proposed projects

Where should proposed projects get added?

  • Scan for HTML in titles and author names - I just ran across the title "Afterword: William Tenn: The Swiftest Tortoise (Immodest Proposals <i>and</i> Here Comes Civilization)." The project is to scan all titles, and perhaps author names, for "<" and ">" to see if they are HTML sequences. We may also want to scan for &something; sequences. --Marc Kupper|talk 01:47, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
