A fact from Journal of the Royal Statistical Society appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 September 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, today a prominent academic journal in statistics, had as its first work a simple door-to-door survey of occupations in Manchester?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2007/September.

Untitled[edit]

If anyone has immediate access to JStor, this article and this article should provide enough background to flesh the article out. I was planning on going to the library Friday, but if anyone wants to pull them up now, I say go for it. --JayHenry 05:58, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

images[edit]

The earliest I have found on Google Books is 1840; see s:Journal of the Statistical Society of London, and transations of 1837 (see Wikisource talk page) but here are the fair use images I've found:

this page has a 165x241px image of Series A Statistics in Society; cant pick the date, but it would be fair-use at best.
this page has a 105x150px image of Series A General, which is a bit better as it could be {{PD-US-no-renewal}} if it is pre-1964 and we cant find renewal records.
RSSA - 95x125px
RSSB - 95x125px
RSSC - 95x125px ;103x150
RSSD - 95x125px

The 95x125px images provided by blackwell are, in my opinion, too low res to be of any use. John Vandenberg 12:35, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

notable contributors[edit]

Based on the Wikipedia article, Reginald Hawthorn Hooker submitted a lot of articles to the journal. John Vandenberg 14:52, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are many others; too many to list so they will be under Whatlinkshere. Interestingly, I found that User:Mathbot/Most wanted redlinks links here. John Vandenberg 15:30, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
