Fwd: New 5,000+ page timeline of UFO news articles (2005 onwards) ... plus 7,000 related JSON files

[Isaac Koi]

I have now uploaded a new UFO timeline tool: a 5,000+ page
chronological summary of online UFO news articles from 2005 onwards,
with links to those articles. (I have also uploaded some new related
collections of thousands of files, as outlined briefly below).

This document is part of my recent effort to use AI tools to impose
more order on my various collections of UFO material (and to help fill
in some of the gaps in those collections). I am also using this
document as one of the tools for updating and revising my previous UFO
Timeline that I shared online in 2006.

I'm happy to make this new UFO timeline document freely available for
anyone to download.

This new document seeks to collate information from Google News and to
generate structured data based on it (in the form of a collection of
about 7,000 JSON files, which I have now also shared online). The JSON
files are then used to generate a chronological table.

I have also been experimenting with using the links in all of the JSON
files to download all of these news articles and name them using a
consistent filename format, but this last part is rather a work in
progress. I've shared a sample of about 1,000 PDFs to give a brief
indication of the current state of this effort. (The current problems
relate mainly to the scraping code I've generated using AI to properly
handling cookie consent popups and related - hopefully minor -
necessary improvements to my current code before it is deployed on a
much larger scale)

(I've included links above to the 5,000 summary document, the 7,000
JSON files and the sample of 1,000 PDFs).

I'm planning on extending this project about online news articles
during the next few days and then combining these relatively recent
news articles with my existing collection of about 100,000 older
scanned newspaper clippings about UFOs from the 1940s onwards
(collated during the last couple of decades from working with over 100
different UFO groups/researchers and combining their collections).
