By the way, what criteria are used to decide what articles are requested in that little list at the top of Recent changes? I see that one of them is now Marcus Barcan. Who is this? A Google search for this name turns up "about 30" matches. However, most of them seem to refer to Ruth Barcan Marcus, the philosopher and logician after whom the Barcan formula is apparently named. Is this who was meant? She has a page here, which says that she has also been known as "Ruth C. Barcan" and "Ruth B. Marcus". Not "Marcus Barcan", though... -- Oliver P. 12:58, 22 Aug 2003 (UTC)
- I don't know if there are any criteria as such. When I see a blue link, I go to the requested article page and pick one I like the look of to replace it. I assume that's what everyone else does as well. If Marcus Barcan hasn't been created in say a week, why not just swap it for something else? Theresa Knott 22:58, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- I forgot - one thing I do always do is click on the red link and check the "what links here" to see if it's linked to from another article in the main namespace. I've just done that for MB and it isn't :-( Theresa Knott 23:01, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- LOL I just checked the date and realised I'm not replying to yesterday but to a year ago. Oh well. Theresa Knott 23:04, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)
