Category of chemists by British universities
Well done for creating these sets of categories. This could help, in finding the chemists at each relevant university. It could be argued that a category for other sorts of scientists, or mathematicians could be created too? But I can see these categories helping in finding your way through the British university world. ~2026-20000-54 (talk) 15:11, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
Glad somebody else finds them useful! I was looking at chemists in Birmingham about a month ago while editing the page for John Fossey and was surprised there was no better way to find them than hunting through several hundred Birmingham academics. As is so often the case, I started on an idea for a useful tool, and it snowballed.
Doing the same for physicists, biologists, etc. would be a good idea (another editor has already done the same for classical scholars), but if chemists are anything to go by it'd take years to do everything, even with multiple editors. Probably best to go one university at a time, slowly turning the "Academics of X" pages into container categories. Problem for the future, though. I still have over 20 UK universities to go, and haven't even thought yet of whether or not to do other countries' institutions as well, especially since there's a lot of overlap.
My godfather taught Organic Chemistry at a well-known London scientific university, next door to the Natural History Museum. He is still alive. My father's brother taught Physics there, but he is not still alive. Perhaps a category for British biologists too? The UK is cooking on gas, in research in biological sciences. And around Cambridge too. You can't move for top biologists. Creating mice that can win the Olympic Games 100 metres. Only joking. It's the 200 metres.

Please note that pages are not allowed to be filed in redlinked categories that do not exist to have pages filed in them, per WP:REDNOT. If you want to add pages to a category that doesn't already exist, then you must either create the category immediately, or not add it to the page at all, and adding pages to a redlinked category but then walking away with a redlinked category sitting on the page for future creation is not on your list of options at all.

Apologies for the oversight.
Having looked back through the logs, it seems the issue was Chemists of the University of Reading. I don't know how I missed it at the time, but the page has been created now.
Further to the above, I've just reviewed my edit history and found the same thing happened with Chemists of Loughborough University (category page now created), and I somehow managed to make the same mistake with Reading twice, on the same article, on different days. I'm going to switch my workflow from categorising one scientist at a time to one university at a time, which should prevent re-occurrence. Apologies once again.

Citations
Appreciated your edit here and just wondered if you had a tool you were using? I toggled on the "Citations" button myself but it barely seems to work for most bare urls - but you seem like you've got something similar/better functioning? New Yathrib - Fundy Historian (talk) 12:23, 16 May 2026 (UTC)
Sorry, the only tool I use is the standard Wikipedia convert button. When that doesn't work I just fill in the fields manually.
I know some editors use refill, which you may find helpful, but I've never used it myself so I can't vouch for it.
