My weekly alerts give me about 20 hits. It's an interesting mixture of very obscure newspapers, reprints & me-toos of big articles (every story as big as flagged basically ruins that week's alert, since there will be at least a dozen blogs or newspapers regurgitating the content or even just linking it); but it's worth subscribing for the obscure articles which will never get posted here or anywhere on-wiki, and for the off-hand references. -- gwern _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
