Hello, Avazina, welcome to Wikisource! Thanks for your interest in the project; we hope you'll enjoy the community and your work here.

The Community Portal lists tasks you can help with if you wish. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my talk page.

What is the copyright status of Book of Common Prayer (ECUSA)? You should also read the style guide section on page titles (and not make any new pages until you do). —Benn Newman (AMDG) 02:02, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A few years ago I was able to download a zip file of the entire BCP (ECUSA) for free from an ECUSA website. I'll try to find that site again and verify copyright status as well. --Avazina 02:14, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Here is the website where the BCP can be downloaded. --Avazina 02:49, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ECUSA page names[edit]

The pages added as part of Book of Common Prayer (ECUSA) appear to need a bit of discussion and perhaps some changes in order conform to our page naming style guidelines. See WS:STYLE

Typically, all pages within a work are created as "subpages". For example I have moved the Preface to Book of Common Prayer (ECUSA)/Preface, as it is definitely a component of that work.

However, many works consist of smaller works that are considered separate. E.g. a hymn can usually be found in many different books, with only minor changes between editions, so a hymn is considered a separate work, and is given its own page. On the other hand a chapter of a book is usually only ever printed in full in editions of a single work, so it would be a subpage.

Do you think you will have time to adjust this work to conform, or do you have an opinion on which pages of this work should be considered separate works in their own right? John Vandenberg (chat) 13:51, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
