Since no one has been too specific with dates on these things, and now that there are multiple entries that suggest "recent" articles in Q&P, I saw this as color, rather than new information. We know that most of these were recent and I didn't see that the particular date was structurally significant, since the original authors who referenced "recent" publications were no more specific than that. The volume and number were my addition, but as I said, I didn't see it as significant new information. The Issue number was whole cloth fabrication (although we know that it's published five times a year, so there were no issue numbers higher than 5). However, most journals are published one volume per year. Barring any lapses in publication (and there's been no hint of any), the first year would be Volume 1, the second year would be Volume 2, etc. Each year's volume number could thus be directly extrapolated. --Brother Arfrus 22:54, 21 December 2005 (EST)
