Category:Articles with missing NLM abbreviation redirects

Administrators: Please do not delete this category as empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set. These categories can be used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience. These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or sub-categories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

This category is populated by {{Infobox journal}} based on its |nlm= parameter. If you're interested in created missing redirects

• Load up an article from the category.
• There is maintenance templates should be at the top of page, with the relevant redlink/copy-pastable code to create the redirects.
• VERIFY THAT THE ABBREVIATION IN |nlm= IS CORRECT FIRST
  • There are links in the maintenance templates to facilitate this
  • Do not rely on your intuition. Someone may have made a mistake that seems fine at first glance, but isn't actually an NLM abbreviation (e.g. Spine (Phila Pa) instead of the correct Spine (Phila Pa 1976) for Spine).
  • If |nlm= is wrong, fix it. The maintenance templates will now update themselves with the correct-copy past code, and the correct redlinks to be created.
  • If you cannot determine the correct abbreviation, or aren't sure, leave a message at WT:MED and someone will help you.
• Use the copy-pastable code from the template to create the redirects (you can also reuse it in the edit summary)
• WP:PURGE the original article to remove the maintenance templates.
