Each grouping below comprises about 1000 entries. The "x articles left" are not updated and should be treated as obsolete. A mid-2012 estimate suggest roughly that there are still about 950 articles out of each set of 1,000 to be written. See User:Piotrus/Wikipedia interwiki and specialized knowledge test for more details.
- The Polish Biographical Dictionary is not yet complete. Entries St – Zz will be added as new volumes are published.
Technical details
Notes on conversion soft/bot:
- Capitalized names could perhaps be uncapitalised: SURNAME rendered as Surname.
- Polish terms used in the file: lp = no. (number); str = page (in the file, format x, y = volume, page); płeć = sex; zm = died; ok. = about (as in birthdate).
- In the event of Polish-language problems, please see Polish language for lower- and upper-case symbols and html codes.
- Output would be preferable in the following format: [[First name and surname without Polish characters, which are unrecognizable by Wiki|First name and surname with Polish characters]], (birthdate - date of death, ok. translated as ca.), sex (M/F), text left in Polish — to be translated when articles are created — and volume and page numbers given as references.
- Since there are some 25,000 entries, a subpage would be needed for about each 500 entries — around 50 wiki pages total. They may be kept on my userpage.
- Since the list contains Polish characters, ISO-8859-2 (Central European) or UTF-8 should preferably be used.
