Phew!
I have just finished up adding Book Covers to all articles under this category - Category:Wikipedia requested photographs of publications - wherever possible. I don't remember how many articles the category had before I began work on it, but I have managed to whittle it down to 125. Of course, it's not all mine. @Iljhgtn has worked on another similar category (I suppose many entries were overlapping) and has probably added twice as many book covers as I have. I am sure there are others contributing, too.
Anyways, the 125 articles that remain, I couldn't find valid book covers for. Some were not available at all, some in other languages I couldn't understand, some had recent editions but not the older ones. I have let them be. If someone else would like to work on them, feel free to use my two scripts for book covers that I have listed on my User page.
I'll probably pick up another similar category after some time. Kingsacrificer (talk) 11:17, 15 February 2026 (UTC)
- Excellent work @Kingsacrificer! I know I have added maybe 6,000+ book cover images, but you've done more than your fair share as well. I could not have done this without your help. Iljhgtn (they/them · talk) 21:50, 15 February 2026 (UTC)

Advice on structure
Hello all, I'd like to ask advice on structure on this article: Draft:The Methuen Drama Book of Trans Plays. I'm wondering how to structure it as the title is both a book, and also the title of what has become a series of three anthologies. However it is only the first book that is notable in its own right: the two later volumes are too recent for reviews to be out, which also means review of the series as a whole isn't available. Currently the article is structured like a series (I think), but I did wonder whether I should just focus on the first book, and then have a 'legacy' or similar section that mentions the two further volumes. Many thanks in advance Lajmmoore (talk) 21:39, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
