“All the requirements to get page numbering on the side obfuscated by your approach. Why?Are you wishing to have every edit of yours reviewed and deemed acceptable, or would you like to be a trusted editor. Do you truly wish for me to bring this matter to the broader community? Would you prefer that abuse filters are written so that this type of editing cannot be undertaken just for you? I would love to see you moved to trusted editor status but you continue to be a maverick who thinks they know better and do not follow our guidance. Please tell me how you would like to progress.”
“The West Coast Task Force is working with public libraries to make Wikisource EPUBs available through their ebook lending system, and we're having good uptake from local readers, with support for training up librarians in other areas to help. It would be great to have some experienced Wikisourcerers helping with the more technical aspects. If you're interested, add yourself to the project page.”
“A couple of weeks ago, we invited you to take the Community Insights Survey. It is the Wikimedia Foundation’s annual survey of our global communities. We want to learn how well we support your work on wiki. We are 10% towards our goal for participation. If you have not already taken the survey, you can help us reach our goal! Your voice matters to us.Please take 15 to 25 minutes to give your feedback through this survey. It is available in various languages.This survey is hosted by a third-party and governed by this privacy statement (in English) .Find more information about this project.”
“I suppose that for being a user creation it will have to have an URL with 'Annotated' in it. Create an annotated version of every page, link everything there, the original version stays minimal. The recreation of 200 pages will be painful, but the annotated content can be added in advance (I really like that) with {{annotation}} and {{annotation switch}}. Use plain wikilinks instead of —and without— reference tags, so that the reader only clicks once to be sent the glossary entry.”
“Wikisource is a collaborative project, and one cannot claim exclusive dominion over workspace. As I have noticed that the formatting was incomplete, and that there were no page breaks on this page where there should be several, I fixed those problems”
“The Annotation paradigm looks fascinating, and thank you for telling me about it, TEA. But I can't proceed yet, because I have doubts about "separation" of "the original" and "the annotated": In the original text, can I add links that point to the annotated glossary? Can I use {{ua}} to present extra glossary, in the original text? And lastly, if the book has an Errata page, is it appropriate to make hyperlinks to it? thanks again. —Genesis Bustamante (talk) 20:45, 27 October 2021 (UTC) I'll use that errata template.”
“The only page with annotated version would be the Glossary, and the original version of the text can have links to it, as well as links to the original Glossary, thus the export will have the annotated Glossary —and the original Glossary— and links to it. (I hope you don't mind more questions) what's your comment on the appropriateness of these ideas? Create a different and new Glossary without the contents of the original, with a title like 'More Glossary by Wikisource', with words that are not in the original Glossary.”
“Wikicode and tablesMediawiki wikicode for tables needs to see all the html equivalents of
on new lines, so when we patch pages together with transclusion the first line of each new pages needs a little wiki-hypnotism to tell it new line, not continuing paragraph. In the Page: namespace {{nopt}} at the top of a page for us acts as a placeholder, then on a new line start your row marker. ”
“I am plenty used to unfair trades as I probably value my work more than others and I am the idiot both locally and in the world for continuing with it when every one else is just as happy or even more happy with button push image processing.”
“A fundamental aspect of a collaborative project is to discuss issues on which there is disagreement, including in particular to explain one's reasoning on such issues. Your personalisation of this issue, with attendant accusations and apparent attempt to make those who disagree with you to "do something else", is inappropriate.”
“I have noticed you have nominated a A Letter from a Noble-Man Abroad, to his Friend in England for validation. I have got just one point to raise before the validation starts: According to Wikisource:Style guide/Orthography#Phonetically equivalent archaic letter forms long s should be transcribed using the template {{ls}}, which keeps the original form of the letter "s" in the page namespace, but transcribes it as ordinary "s" in the main namespace.”
“Page:The Ganas or Republics of Ancient India.pdf/1 Hi, about your proofreading of the page. Curly quotes are against the house style here. Straight quotes are to be used except when special justification exists for curly quotes. Secondly, the references are clubbed together on the last page. So, when you put the references in their appropriate spots, they should be within the includeonly tag, so that the post-proofreading display conforms to the scan but the refs come up during transclusion. The refs clubbed on the last page should be within noinclude tag, so that they are not transcluded.”
“Mail I've sent you an email. --Ferien (talk) 19:10, 2 October 2022 (UTC) w:WP:BRI Please do not edit war with vandals like the one you have just been interacting with, especially if it's on a talk or other non-reader-facing page. They want your attention, and you're just motivating them to continue wasting your time and leaving more of their vandalism visible in page histories. Admins will eventually notice (and you don't even seem to have reported it to Wikisource:Administrators' noticeboard, which would have sped the process up a lot) .”
“The dot leaders are making these two book pages alone about 1.6MB of rendered HTML. I've pretty much done what optimisations I can on the back end, so it's unlikely this can be fixed without foregoing the dot leaders. Xover (talk) 21:00, 12 September 2022 (UTC) "breaks" Reverting with the single word summary "breaks" is rather unhelpful. In order to fix anything I'll need to know what breaks, where, and how. That is, on what page or pages you see something breaking; what part or area of the page is broken”
“This work and its current state just seems a wonderful test case. Does the majority or plurality of the entire work sort the work into a wiki, or do we indulge in some uncertain piecewise hiding or discarding anything not English? Why did I work on this page? It contains *no* English 't'all! Shenme (talk) 03:28, 14 August 2021 (UTC) water quality I hope you don't mind the other images. I swear, when I was looking through them, I saw this image and so I found a better version when I was looking for a good (enough, or perhaps "better") USDA seal.”
“Ælfgar (talk) 09:34, 2 November 2020 (UTC) Re: Mahatma Gandhi, his life, writings and speeches I don’t know how to do transclusion, but I can suggest User:Billinghurst. He’s also the head Admin here. --kathleen wright5 (talk) 11:05, 30 October 2020 (UTC) Reason for undo? Hi, your undo has no explanation of why the editor's amendment was problematic. This was not vandalism, but a well-intentioned change, so the editor deserves a reason for the reversion. If you're not putting the explanation in the edit summary, then you need to explain on the editor's talk page.”
“There was a deletion discussion (now at Wikisource:Proposed deletions/Archives/2013-06#Pages in category "Index - Text Layer Requested") at the time and and the decision was to delete until such time as better scans were available. As far as I can see you've just recreated with the old (hopeless) scan. What do you intend to do with it? Beeswaxcandle (talk) 21:50, 12 April 2020 (UTC) NLS works Please leave the NLS works to the team of their staff that are working on them. They are getting to their works, and they have processes in place to manage.”
“US Statutes at large... Thanks, Can you check with the linthint script when you add pages , because I am seeing a LOT of missmatched P and SPAN tags, possibly resulting from a template that was wrong being subst? ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 10:58, 12 July 2019 (UTC) Transclusion preferentially should use syntax than template:page Hi. The community style is to transclude pages using the mul:Wikisource:ProofreadPage syntax rather than the rather old and less preferred template:Page. It would be great if you could migrate your coding to this form.”
“There are two pages on each scan page, making page numbering impossible. --EncycloPetey (talk) 18:31, 28 February 2020 (UTC) The Republic The introduction is by a different author, with a later date of death, and so will need a different license from the rest of the work. It should therefore appear on a separate pages from the table of contents. --EncycloPetey (talk) 23:24, 16 March 2020 (UTC) Imperative to follow style guide I do not understand your resistance to our style guide. This formatting is simply not acceptable.”
“It is File:Lives of Poets-Dean Swift-260.jpg if you want me to fix it, okay. If you want to play with the croptool (maybe to a greater success than me) okay. If you prefer to leave it, that is okay also. (the original is linked on the ct product) .Sorry it took so long. Great problems with the mouse here prevented me from using a couple of my apps for a time. I would like to be done with these, so whatever you want so I can be done with them would be great to know.--RaboKarbakian (talk) 17:05, 12 September 2021 (UTC) Contributor relies on section label Hi.”
“Specifically, use djvu" include=7 /> to include only a single page. If you do not do this, you will not get proper handling from the ProofreadPage extension, including, but not limited to: page progress tracking (the bar at the top) , index-based CSS, and page numbers. Inductiveload—talk/contribs 22:41, 11 May 2021 (UTC) The Librarian's Copyright Companion is still using direct transclusion with {{Page:}}.”
“Then maybe we could approach the longer-lived residents for a determination. Cuz my lament to Jason included "I wish there was a per-project style guide in the discussion page. Shenme (talk) 04:37, 8 October 2018 (UTC) Robert Treat Paine Robert Treat Paine, Jr., died in 1811 . Your Robert Treat Paine must be a different one.Also, Wikisource does not include "Jr." in author pages as a rule, since it is not part of the person's name. We usually use birth & death dates to dismabiguate, as with Author:Thomas Wilson (1773-1858) for example.”
“There is no header template on this or any of the other chapters of the work. --EncycloPetey (talk) 19:35, 8 June 2022 (UTC) Please review Wikisource:Style guide#Formatting item number 1. Please do not remove templates under false claims. None of the chapter pages has a {{Header}} template. --EncycloPetey (talk) 20:00, 8 June 2022 (UTC) Use of the pages tag will generate a header, but this is a "quick-and-dirty" way to get a work assembled, and is not recommended. To complete a work, the {{Header}} template should be present on all the pages, not simply a pages tag.”
“I fixed few Tamil proverbs errors. so, kindly accept my above request.--Info-farmer (talk) 15:31, 20 October 2021 (UTC) Thanks for the acceptance of my request and the changes in few pages. Though it is a tedious contributions, i wrote a python script to modify that see the changes by the python script. if possible, please try to write Tamil proverbs. i am trying to contact her. --Info-farmer (talk) 01:44, 22 October 2021 (UTC) RE:Fables I'm happy to help, TEA. And you are correct about the drop-initials, I'll mark them, and I'll use plain letters instead of images from other books.”
“The problem is in the Page namespace and with the Index. There is nothing wrong with the source file. --EncycloPetey (talk) 01:07, 25 November 2018 (UTC) Quotation Marks Wikisource:Style_guide#Formatting says "Use typewriter quotation marks (straight, not curly) ." Please don't change straight quotes to curly ones.--Prosfilaes (talk) 00:33, 28 November 2018 (UTC) A buzz overhead I was peeking at recent changes and noticed the activity at "A profitable instruction of the perfite ordering of Bees" and page Page:A_profitable_instruction_of_the_perfite_ordering_of_Bees.djvu/43.”
“The page breaks are necessary for export. In addition, why this edit? The formatting as you had it is incorrect. TE (æ) A,ea. (talk) 15:18, 27 September 2021 (UTC) You have directly interfered in my contributions and demanded my attention on more than one occasion recently, so I have and am advising you to do something else other than trying to engage me in an edit war with imagined rules. There is simply no good reason for you to be sucking joy out of contributing here.”
“Can you make sure that you use em dashes (—) in Index:Poems by Cushag.djvu. I'm getting a bit tired tidying them and the curly quotes to conform to Wikisource's standards.Thanks. -Einstein95 (talk) 23:22, 1 April 2019 (UTC) Same issue in Harlem Shadows. You're using en-dashes where you should be using em-dashes. --EncycloPetey (talk) 23:34, 7 April 2019 (UTC) Deprecated formatting Please see Help:Transclusion regarding the deprecated transclusion method you are using (e.g. {{Page:Cyrano de Bergerac.djvu/5}}) .”
“It is a relatively simple process to transclude a single page. This{{Page:William Blake in his relation to Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1911) .djvu/1}} becomes either of these {{#tag:pages||index=William Blake in his relation to Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1911) .djvu|include=1}} Using Page, unnecessarily fouls up page numbering in the left margin, and that truly should be avoided.
