Proposed changes
This discussion page was started in July 2014 to collect ideas for improving this chapter. It includes the suggestions offered by the BPG Publications Committee, PCC Task Force in 2007-2009. Please feel free to add your own suggestions for improvement.
Update priority: Medium
- Review/update the discussion of appropriateness of sizing and ethical considerations.
- 17.2.4 – New sizing detection literature needs to be incorporated into discussion.
- 17.2.4 3. Synthetic sizes – needs to be updated to reflect current paper making processes especially the use of plastics as coatings. (Ex. Modern transparent papers.)
- D. Identifying original sizing in papers needs to be updated with new research.
- 17.2.7 – Future storage environment – needs to be updated.
- 2. Proteins – expand information on preparations and incorporate current suppliers.
- Regeneration of sizing needs to be either not covered or discussed as a misnomer.
- This chapter would benefit from a better table of contents (e.g. to allow one to jump down to gelatin sizing)--Kkelly (talk) 08:22, 27 July 2015 (CDT)
- Done! --Sandrine Blais (talk) 22:17, 28 November 2025 (UTC)
Regeneration of Original Sizing
This whole section feels like an annotation that should live under the article reference, rather than as a section on the page, esp with the compiler note. --Sandrine Blais (talk) 22:17, 28 November 2025 (UTC)
Essays?
Do the essays at the bottom of the page still serve this page? I feel like they would be better off as references than housed on the page itself. --Sandrine Blais (talk) 22:17, 28 November 2025 (UTC)
