Hi there. I'm here to add the occasional Article from the 1911 Encyclopedia.

Wikisource:WikiProject 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Style Manual

So far, I have only added 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Baron, Michel

[edit] DNB

I needed to use an article from the Dictionary of National Biography for a Wikipedia reference, and discovered that the Wikisource DNB was not yet ready fro prime time. I hacked together a DNB project as a place to park my article. I hope this will be useful for others. My idea is the same as for Birtannica: When creating a new Wikipedia article, first create a Wikisource article to faithfully reproduce the reference, and create a copy and update it for Wikipedia.
