Best Practices for Books[edit]

How to include a book in the article of the author?

Lots of variation[edit]

Terry Gross[edit]

Finding all or at least a lot of NPR authors[edit]

I started with the Terry Gross article, but that article was lacking any author related category:

Category:1951 births
Category:Living people
Category:American broadcast news analysts
Category:American talk radio hosts
Category:American women television journalists
Category:Jewish American journalists
Category:Journalists from Pennsylvania
Category:The New Yorker people
Category:NPR personalities
Category:Peabody Award winners
Category:People from Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn
Category:Radio personalities from Philadelphia
Category:Sheepshead Bay High School alumni
Category:University at Buffalo alumni
Category:American women radio journalists
Category:Women radio presenters
Category:National Humanities Medal recipients
Category:American people of Polish-Jewish descent
Category:American people of Russian-Jewish descent

So I added:

Category:21st-century non-fiction writers


Running PetScan[edit]

Running PetScan with two categories:

Category:21st-century_non-fiction_writers
Category:NPR_personalities

SIDEBAR:[edit]

Ensure contents of NPR_personalities are all members of: Category:NPR_personalities[edit]

Returns a whopping one (!) result: https://petscan.wmflabs.org/?&project=wikipedia&edits%5Bflagged%5D=both&interface_language=en&edits%5Bbots%5D=both&ns%5B0%5D=1&edits%5Banons%5D=both&language=en&cb_labels_yes_l=1&categories=21st-century_non-fiction_writers%0ANPR_personalities&search_max_results=500&cb_labels_no_l=1&cb_labels_any_l=1&since_rev0=&&doit=

Increasing the depth from 0 to 1 we get 14:
