[[:it:Discussioni utente:Panairjdde]]
<!-- ==Areas of interest==
*English choral and organ music
*Wales (especially music and Anglesey)
*English Law and the legal profession
*University of Oxford
*Getting articles into the right categories! -->

==Pages created==
===Composers===
*[[Herbert Murrill]]
*[[Hugh Blair (composer)|Hugh Blair]]
*[[Guto Puw]] {{GAicon}}

===Academic-related===
*[[Jesus Professor of Celtic]]
*Updates to [[John Rhys]] and [[Thomas Charles-Edwards]], who were already on WP, but new pages for [[John Fraser (Celticist)]], [[Idris Foster]] and [[Ellis Evans|D Ellis Evans]]

===Others===
*[[Newbridge, Oxfordshire]]
*and some photographs added to articles about the [[Thames Path]], [[St John's Lock]] and Anglesey ([[Penmon, Anglesey]] {{GAicon}}, [[Ynys Seiriol]], [[Ysgol David Hughes]])

==Categories created - 1,053 to date==
===Organ-related===
All but the first were created as part of the [[WP:PipeOrgan]] Project, so I can't claim all the credit for populating them:
*[[:Category:Organ scholars]]
*[[:Category:Cathedral organists]]
*[[:Category:Theatre organists]]
*and '''43''' other categories of [[:Category:Fooian classical organists]] or [[:Category:Fooian organists by genre]]

===Academic-related===
*[[:Category:Fellows of the Royal Historical Society]]
*[[:Category:Fellows of Blackfriars, Oxford]]
*[[:Category:Fellows of Regent's Park College, Oxford]] ''and'' [[:Category:Alumni of Regent's Park College, Oxford]]
*[[:Category:Alumni of St Benet's Hall, Oxford]] ''and'' [[:Category:Fellows of St Benet's Hall, Oxford]]
*[[:Category:Alumni of St Cross College, Oxford]]
*[[:Category:Alumni of St Stephen's House, Oxford]]
*[[:Category:Alumni of Templeton College, Oxford]] ''and'' [[:Category:Fellows of Templeton College, Oxford]]
*[[:Category:Royal College of Music]], [[:Category:People associated with the Royal College of Music]], [[:Category:Academics of the Royal College of Music]] ''and'' [[:Category:Alumni of the Royal College of Music]]

===The Wikipedia guidelines for categorizing musicians: [[WP:MUSCAT]]===
*Cleaning-up [[:Category:Welsh musicians]] creating various Welsh music related categories. I then discovered the categorization guidelines, and was inspired...
*[[:Category:Oboists]] previously had no sub-categories for its 50 or so names. Fixed - '''40''' new categories created.
*[[:Category:Violists]] previously had no sub-categories for its 70 or so names. Fixed - '''76''' new categories created.
*[[:Category:Bassoonists]] - '''25''' new categories - and, after a comment by [[User:Badagnani]], I added [[List of bassoonists]] to try and retain the usefulness of being able to see all bassoonists on Wikipedia on one page, as you could before the category was "processed".
*[[:Category:Harpists]] - '''56''' sub-categories
*[[:Category:Flautists]] - '''81''' sub-categories
*[[:Category:Tubists]] - '''29''' sub-categories
*[[:Category:Cellists]] - '''118''' sub-categories
*[[:Category:Trombonists]] - '''61''' sub-categories so far
*[[:Category:Horn players]] - '''25''' so far, in progress
<div class="NavFrame">
<div class="NavHead">Various other categories created for other instruments as I go through - more work needed in most of these areas.</div>
<div class="NavContent">
{{multicol}}
:*6 [[:Category:Accordionists]]
:*6 [[:Category:Bassists]]
:*14 [[:Category:Clarinetists]]
:*13 [[:Category:Double-bassists]]
:*10 [[:Category:Drummers]]
:*32 [[:Category:Guitarists]]
{{multicol-break}}
*1 [[:Category:Harmonica players]]
*4 [[:Category:Keyboardists]]
*4 [[:Category:Multi-instrumentalists]]
*8 [[:Category:Percussionists]]
*24 [[:Category:Pianists]]
*2 [[:Category:Quena players]]
{{multicol-break}}
*1 [[:Category:Rappers]]
*1 [[:Category:Record producers]]
*32 [[:Category:Saxophonists]]
*4 [[:Category:Singers]]
*20 [[:Category:Trumpet players]]
*31 [[:Category:Violinists]]
{{multicol-end}}
</div>
</div>

*Plus '''226''' "parent" categories for all these to fit into e.g. [[:Category:Fooian classical musicians by instrument]] or [[:Category:Fooian musicians by genre]]
*And some "tidying" of the existing category trees when I spot problems.

===Other===
*Tidied up [[:Category:Musicologists]] (130 or so names, creating '''22''' national sub-categories).
*Some Welsh categories created e.g. [[:Category:Buildings and structures in Wales by county]], [[:Category:List-Class Wales articles]]
*I also keep an eye on [[:Special:Wantedcategories]] and create some "wanted" categories (12 so far) or, more often, recategorising articles to existing categories as necessary.
*Some other music-related categories, such [[:Category:English marching bands]] and its category tree, and [[:Category:Compositions by Guto Puw]].

===To do===
*finish off [[:Category:Trombonists]] by checking and emptying the (nationality) categories into (nationality+genre) categories.
*finish off [[:Category:Horn players]]
*then find some more music categories to do in the same way.
*For a change (!), try and sort out the <s>it was 220 but 30 articles also referred to colleges so were easy to sort out</s> 190 or so names in [[:Category:Alumni of the University of Oxford]], which should contain few articles, only sub-categories of college alumni.

<!-- Commenting this section out, as have done better things now
==Pages cleaned up or improved (beyond just reverting vandalism or making small changes)==
A list that includes:
*[[Barbara Harbach]] - organist
*[[Brian Rice]] - footballer (saw the page on NPW and worked on it)
*[[Fort Richmond Collegiate]]
*[[Osian Ellis]] - Welsh harpist
*[[Penmon, Anglesey]] {{GAicon}}
*[[South Camden Community School]]
*[[Southend High School for Boys]]
