Wikipedia:GLAM/IUPAC PoliMi

Hands-on training on Wikipedia and Wikidata for application of IUPAC terms across Wikipedia is a project coordinated by Guido Raos of the Polytechnic University of Milan that aims to bring some IUPAC members to contribute to Wikipedia on polymer-related subjects.

IUPAC team members will attend the third edition of the Science, technology, society and Wikipedia course from 1 to 5 July and will create and/or edit a few high-quality Wikipedia pages.

Articles to be written

 * Controlled polymerization (Merna and Topham)
 * Transition-metal-mediated radical polymerization (Merna, partially covered on RDRP page, but perhaps separate redirecting page could be done as CoMRP have a dedicated page)
 * Polymer support (Giuntini)
 * Uniform polymer (Hess)
 * Θ temperature (Hess)

Articles to be improved
As starting point we may consider Wikipedia's list of polymer-related "stubs": Category:Polymer stubs


 * Chain propagation (Merna, under consideration)
 * Polymer solution (Raos)
 * Telechelic polymer (Raos and Marcos)

Wikipage to be improved for a Feature article

 * Polymer (Hess, but all SPT Task Group are welcome to work on this)

Articles completed

 * Solution polymerization (Merna, extension of stub to article)
 * chain transfer (Topham- incorporation of chain transfer agent)

 * poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (Peeters)
 * Poly(p-phenylene oxide) (Peeters)
 * UPILEX (Peeters)
 * Polyphthalamide (Peeters)
 * Poly(butylene terephthalate) (this has been upgraded from 'stub' status)
