Jack,  sorry for delay in replying. Yesterday was hectic.

You said (MY ANSWERS IN CAPS)

- could I temporarily have permission to edit drafts of more than 3
sequences, so that I can work on all these sequences at once? I have an
active draft for A002405, and there are 8 related sequences I would like to
edit. I RAISED YOUR LIMIT, THANKS FOR YOUR HELP

- is it preferable to upload the pdf somewhere and add a link, or add it
directly to the encyclopedia entries as a file? It has citations and the
format of a mathematical paper, but I don't intend to publish elsewhere and
it's not clear that it would be of general interest - it is specifically
intended to clarify the entry and justify the calculation of more terms.
UPLOAD IT ONCE , ATTACHED TO  ONE SEQUENCE, THEN edit the link,
which will then say something like
Jack W Grahl, href="/A268076/a268076.pdf">Your title</a>
and use exactly the same link in the other sequences


- if the latter, should I add it to each entry, or just to one, and make
sure the other sequences mention that entry?
- same questions for the Python code. Upload or link? Upload to all entries
or just one?
SAME ANSWER: UPLOAD ONCE, COPY LINK IN OTHER ENTRIES

- some of these sequences are given in the encyclopedia as all positive,
but in their actual definition they are all negative. Should sequences like
this be edited or left as they are?
LEAVE THEM AS THEY ARE.  NORMALLY the definition would say something linke
Numbers which are red and green (negated).

Best regards
Neil
