Secondary sources about FPSAC

In spite of how well known FPSAC is within its small community, it has been a bit difficult to find secondary sources discussing FPSAC. I did find the following article published in the news section of the Dartmouth College website: https://home.dartmouth.edu/news/2018/07/mathematicians-worldwide-come-dartmouth-conference. I tried to include this reference in a sentence in the opening paragraph of the article, but this was rolled back by Russ Woodroofe (understandably, as it was probably overstated). Thinking of some way to appropriately include this reference could be good, though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:152:97E:9A00:41A6:E8B2:3F3D:C970 (talk) 21:06, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Name of article

I also think the name of the article should be changed to just "Formal Power Series and Algebraic Combinatorics (FPSAC)". I have never seen it called "the International Conference on Formal Power Series and Algebraic Combinatorics"; for example, the FPSAC website https://fpsac.org/ does not describe it this way. In the first sentence of the article it can be explained that it is an annual series of international conferences, but that doesn't need to be in the name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:152:97E:9A00:41A6:E8B2:3F3D:C970 (talk) 21:10, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The first sentence of the last several web pages for fpsac conferences has been something like "This is the the website for the nth International Conference on Formal Power Series and Algebraic Combinatorics, which ...". Russ Woodroofe (talk) 08:49, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
