- Hello. I'm aware of that; did I forget to put in someplace? The project I'm working on now is "The House Without Windows", which shows the public domain status. Or am misinterpreting what you said? I'm still inexperienced in this wiki. HendrikWBK (talk) 11:11, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- It has to be on the transclusion's front matter, as I placed it at The House Without Windows. People don't generally see the file (which has to have its separate license at Wikimedia Commons) when they want to read the book. The transclusion is for our readers to read the transcription, so the readers need to be clearly aware of why the file is out of copyright. SnowyCinema (talk) 12:47, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- Understood. Thank you. HendrikWBK (talk) 12:53, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Previous and Next[edit]
When the link and pagename are the same, you can use a simpler syntax. --EncycloPetey (talk) 00:31, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
