Thank you for bringing this up, Barbara! It gives me the opportunity to submit a status report and also provide some guidance. ;-)
I've been working my way through the one name studies alphabetically, creating redirects and am now at "H." As of this morning, there are 908 surname studies with new studies created every day, so it is understandably taking quite some time to go through the list.
Progress has been slowed considerably due to the fact that redirects can only be done when a space page has been created for your surname project. For some reason, many study leaders have opted out of having a project page in favor of posting all project information on the surname study category page. Whenever I run across this problem, I have to stop and send the project leader a message, so it would be wonderful if any of our ONS project members reading this post would make sure that they have a project space page for their one name study.
Thank you!
Alison ;-)
