[edit] Example of a Rubric?
Does anyone have an actual example of a rubric (preferrably online)? Might be worth adding to the article. -- Felix Wiemann 20:05, 16 January 2006 (UTC) Done Johnbod (talk) 00:13, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Merge
I'm proposing that both this badly misnamed article and Rubric (ecclesiastical) should be merged to Rubric - I have moved the disam contents out to Rubric (disambiguation). Issues:
- The little text content at Rubric (ecclesiastical) has been merged here. There is really little difference between the concepts, & where there is, both senses are covered here.
- The "typographical" name makes little sense; rubrics were a manuscript invention whose use declined when printing came in.
- The only other uses are a tiny record label and a modern (US only?) use in education, whose content & titling are disputed at that article. So this article should have the plain rubric title.

[edit] Information
- I merged Rubric (disambiguation) to Rubric, as both were disambigs. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 10:49, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Page Rubric started about teacher's 5-column rubrics, then people added sections about other sorts of rubrics, until someone pulled the text of each section out as separate pages, leaving the remaining skeleton as a disambig page.
- Page Rubric (disambiguation) was started on 15 Feb 2009 and only has been edited 3 times, so I merged it into page Rubric to get rid of content forking.
- The discussion may be: of the pages that page Rubric points to, is any one of them dominant enough to be moved to Rubric, and the present page Rubric to Rubric (disambiguation)? Or what?
- Anthony Appleyard (talk) 12:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, that is what was polled on , and requested at move requests. This page should go to "Rubric". The "ecclesiasticaL" one is now just a redirect to here. Johnbod (talk) 13:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Currently, Rubric (ecclesiastical) redirects to Rubric (typography). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 17:55, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- OK, OK, I made the move Rubric (typography) -> Rubric -> Rubric (disambiguation). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 18:02, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Morris
I've added a Kelmscott Press image, but I would like to replace it with a non-ecclesiastical example (probably from The Wood Beyond the World) to show the breadth of usage. - PKM (talk) 20:03, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
- For now I have added an external link to some representative Kelmscott pages, also links to Roycroft Press examples and a derivative work. - PKM (talk) 20:45, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
- Further, there are more examples of rubrics in art typography at Ashendene Press and Doves Press. Note to self: make a category for rubrics in the Commons and collect these... - PKM (talk) 21:33, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
