Dear All,
Could members please remember to include a Subject Heading in ALL messages
sent to allstat.
This makes it easier for members who are interested in one aspect only.
They can then scan emails for any relevant items.
A full set of Allstat rules can be found at:-
http://www.ltsn.gla.ac.uk/allstat/
Below is a list of the relevant subject headings provided as a guide.
Subject lines Members are asked to use meaningful subject lines when
sending out broadcasts. The benefits are obvious, particularly when
browsing through the
<http://www.ltsn.gla.ac.uk/allstat/archives.html>archives for a specific
message. In particular, posters are requested to use clear keywords in
subject lines, to give an indication of content. The following convention
has been adopted:
JOB - jobs or studentships
SEMINAR - seminar announcements
CONFERENCE - conference announcements
COURSE - taught course announcements
WORKSHOP - workshop announcements
ANNOUNCE - other announcements
QUERY - for queries
SUMMARY - for a summary of replies from a query
S/W ADVERT - for a software advert *
BOOK ADVERT - for a book advert *
ADMIN - administration messages (from the list owner)
A sample subject line may read
JOB: temporary lectureship at Glasgow University, UK
Where appropriate, a geographical location should be included in the
subject line.
Cheers,
Andrew.
