This is tracking page {{{1}}} of the DNB WikiProject's Volume of the Month Collaboration for {{{2}}} {{{4}}}. This month's volume is vol. {{{5}}} {{{6}}} which is:
NB that the Wikisource articles will in many cases already link to the corresponding Wikipedia biography. It is, however, not possible to guarantee either that these links are 100% correct in their target; nor that the absence of a link means the corresponding biography is not here. Please update the "wikipedia=" field on Wikisource where appropriate. There is a categorised list from {{{8}}} on Wikisource covering the biographies lacking a link to WP. As the VoTM collaboration started there were {{{9}}} without WP link in vol. {{{5}}}.
This "ranked missing articles" tool lists the redlinks in descending order of the number of times they are linked to, in articles. (Note that the baseline is two links, coming from DNB project pages.)
There are around four cases where the Epitome list may differ from the biography list (volume ToC) on Wikisource:
There are a few anomalies also. Because of OCR problems, the Epitome pages may be incorrectly ordered, as well as having typos.
In some cases the DNB article is hard to locate in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (ODNB): this occurs if a different spelling or different name is used; if the subject is relegated to a subarticle in the ODNB (e.g. Irish saints, who in some cases are bundled into general surveys); or because modern scholarship has decided the person in question never existed. Please help avoid duplication of effort in these cases, if you have ODNB access and find such issues, by leaving a note here and on the Wikisource biography.
Please remember that only people who meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines should be added. The DNB text does not always establish that notability. Further research may.
