Expansion ideas

Once we get high enough in the series of these papyri, I'm thinking that groups of 100 inside the template can also be collapsed somehow. If you have ideas on this, chime in.— alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 02:07, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Current theory

I made a subtemplate for 1-200 and transcluded it here: Template:Oxyrhynchus Papyri 1-200. I'm thinking to make a separate subtemplate for each group of 200 up to 1000, and transclude them here. If we get that far, I think it'd be best to move this template down one in the hierarchy, clone it for further groups of 1000, and transclude them here. The current plan ought to get us through 1000 gracefully, anyway.— alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 21:19, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Theory as of November 23, 2011

Various people interested in this material have decided that it'd be better to group these papyri by volume of Grenfell and Hunt rather than by hundreds. Right now I've only made subtemplates for the first two volumes. As we get through more of the articles, and hence more subtemplates for more volumes, it may be better to group the subtemplates in this template, but as there are only two as of today, I haven't done this yet. Please fool around with it if you have ideas for a better system.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 21:02, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
