Hello Kathleen.wright5, welcome to Wikisource! Thanks for your interest in the project; we hope you'll enjoy the community and your work here.

You'll find an (incomplete) index of our works listed at Wikisource:Works, although for very broad categories like poetry you may wish to look at the categories like Category:Poems instead.

Please take a glance at our help pages (especially Adding texts and Wikisource's style guide). Most questions and discussions about the community are in the Scriptorium.

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!—Zhaladshar ^(Talk) 13:51, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Kathleen, it's nice to put a name to all the good edits, and it is great to see renewed interest in the Easton's project. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 09:30, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Questions

Hi,

Yes, I'd send the former to WS:DEL, since the proofs for God's existence are definitely part of the Pensees; there's no need to have them on another page.

And in response to your first question, all a bureaucrat does is make users into sysops/bureaucrats, rename users, and assign bot flags to accounts.—Zhaladshar ^(Talk) 17:40, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dead sea scrolls

That's a tricky one. I'd say remove all the Korean text and then clean up the English text so that it looks like just one document. Right now, it looks like it's got both a Korean and an English translation. Of course, I have no idea how accurate the document will be without the Korean text (maybe the Korean contains portions of the scroll that isn't in English yet).—Zhaladshar ^(Talk) 13:35, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Categories

Hi,

I disagree with the way you are tagging and categorising subpages.

Firstly, I don't agree with adding {{PD-old}} to subpages like Flora Australiensis/Volume V/Addendum; it suffices to template Flora Australiensis and leave it at that.

Secondly, here you add Category:Incomplete texts without a source to Flora Australiensis/Volume V/Addendum. The entire text may be incomplete, but that subpage is complete. Either you're marking the entire text as incomplete, in which case marking Flora Australiensis/Volume 5 suffices; or you're marking that particular subpage as incomplete, in which case you are wrong. I can't see any merit in marking incomplete every single subpage of an incomplete text, even the complete ones. All that does is overpopulate the category, thus obfuscating what is complete and what is not.

[edit] Template messages

Hi Kat! I see you've worked extensively at cleaning up Wikisource:Template messages. I'd suggest including a small description after each template link (at least for the licensing templates), so users don't have to access all those pages looking for the right template. I've been on here for 6 months, and I don't know any templates memory besides PD-old and PD-70! :) Thanks, - Mtmelendez 17:17, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] {{PD-old}}

Hello,

Could you please replace {{PD-old}} by {{PD-1923}} instead of removing the template? Thanks, Yann 07:59, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for your answer. I have asked Hesperian some precisions about this. Thanks, Yann 10:45, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] great work

You are doing a great job. If you do some work on proofreading, such as WS:PotM, I reckon you are ready to be given the mop around here. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 23:47, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

No worries. We need more admins! hint, hint :-) John Vandenberg ^(chat) 12:37, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

You are doing a great job, and I can understand that you want to finish that task before moving on to another. I have commented on PG-au. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 12:50, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] categorizing subpages

Hi,

I noticed you've been categorizing subpages of Discoveries in Australia. However, convention is not to categorize these pages because they "inherit" the property from the parent page. And it also keeps the categories cleaner because most people won't be searching for when chapter 3 of volume 1 of a work was published, but rather when the actual work itself was.—Zhaladshar ^(Talk) 14:14, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

You are still adding categories to sup-pages, like The suppressed Gospels and Epistles of the original New Testament of Jesus the Christ/Chapter 23. We do not categorise subpages unless the category doesnt apply to the entire work. It is very very rare that we want pages containing a "/" to have a category. Please discuss if you are unsure. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 13:46, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

In addition to rolling back your changes to these to sets of subpages, I have deleted Category:Discoveries in Australia and Category:Two expeditions into the interior of Southern Australia as we dont create categories to contain all pages within a work, except in rare situations such as Encyclopedia. Also, all subpages can be reached via Prefixindex; e.g. Special:Prefixindex/Two expeditions into the interior of Southern Australia.

Also I've commented at Talk:Transwiki:Constitution of Republika Srpska.

Finally, I see you have been doing a lot of repetitive work, like removing PD-old from pages that didnt need it. We have bots that can do this very quickly; feel free to make requests at WS:BOTR. If it is too hard to a bot to do, we will simply say so.

I've gone back through most of your contributions, and they are looking good except the ones I have reverted. I tried to be careful not to remove good edits that were intermingled with the additions of the cats. You've been doing a great job, and I am sorry we havent more documentation in place to assist new users like yourself who ramp up quickly into administration type edits. I hope you are not discouraged by this. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 14:35, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

I have reverted this, as that page is a subpage, and shouldnt be categorised into Category:2004 works as the entire work was published in 2004. CIA World Fact Book, 2004 is already in Category:2004 works. --John Vandenberg ^(chat) 00:12, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] proofreading

Good to see you have started on the proofreading, with gusto. Please see Index talk:Wind in the Willows (1913).djvu, esp. in regards to replacing the single quotes with double quotes. If you are unsure on anything, ask on that talk page. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 11:27, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

But please dont worry about correcting the pages you have already done. Someone else will need to verify them, and the quotes can be fixed then. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 11:30, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] EBD Articles

Take a look at this:

• EBD A-Az articles: Content & Headings
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/A-Az

I think all we have to do is intercut the content with the headers, paste them into pages, and add more links if you want. What to do think? --Carlaude 00:20, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

• EBD Articles without Headings
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/B-D
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/E-I
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/J-L
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/M-Z

• EBD Article Headings
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/B-D headers
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/E-I headers
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/J-L headers
  • Easton's Bible Dictionary (1897)/M-Z headers

[edit] Brundtland Report

Hello,

Why did you remove the Category:United Nations from this work? I don't see the point of having Category:Reports by the World Commission on Environment and Development, as this commission has only published one report, and doesn't exist anymore. Regards, Yann 10:22, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, also for proofreading this work. It is in my TODO list for a long time... Yann 10:39, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Index:Goody Two-Shoes (1881).djvu

Thanks for proofreading some of the pages, ut there is a problem. As you saw, I marked some of them as problematic. This is because in words like "muft" (must) there is in f, instead of the correct ſ (long s). diego_pmc 05:57, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] redundant pages

You deleted On the Westminster Confession of Faith as redundant; which page is it redundant to? I cant see the duplicate.

See also Wikisource:Scriptorium#CSD_G4 where I am proposing that G4 be dropped from our CSD list. I've been meaning to propose this for a while; your use of it only reminded me to do so. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 05:29, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

OK. Great detective work! Should Westminster Confession of Faith be mentioned on Author:Archibald Alexander Hodge ? John Vandenberg ^(chat) 05:52, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

In regards to Statute of Anne, I have restored it and explain myself here. Again, great sleuthing finding these dups; it shows how important it is that we add works into year based categories. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 01:24, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] PD-India + PD-old

Hello,

Why do you think it necessary to have both templates PD-India + PD-old? [1] It seems that PD-India is redondant here. Yann 23:14, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] use page image

Hi, Pages that transclude the {{use page image}} template are problematic by definition; it is an error to validate them. Hesperian 23:48, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rampa Story

Don't suppose I can convince you to split? :) Sherurcij ^{Collaboration of the Week: Author:Charles Spurgeon} 07:58, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Alright, the splitting is fairly easy, just make a list at the top reading *[[/Chapter I|Chapter I]] (The / means it will create as a sub-page), then click it to copy/paste in the text from the main page. Once all is done, you'll eventually want a header on each page as well. If you need help, don't hesitate to ask Sherurcij ^{Collaboration of the Week: Author:Charles Spurgeon} 17:23, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Template

I create {{Blockeduser}}. Feel free to tweak it as is needed. --Sunstar NW XP 14:45, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

nb: this is at {{blocked user}} now; Cheers, Jack Merridew 08:20, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speeches

There is a discussion at Wikisource:Possible copyright violations#Template:PD-manifesto about the use of {{PD-manifesto}} on speeches.--BirgitteSB 17:00, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 'populate' and DNB

Hi Kathleen. With the DNB project we are currently creating the corresponding author pages and will be adding the relevant biographies and listing them on these Author pages once they are transcribed. If you see Category:Contributors to DNB this is an indicator that we will populate these pages when the transcription is done. It may save a little effort on your behalf --billinghurst (talk) 00:43, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Descriptive account

Thankyou. Hesperian 05:52, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thank you for the assistance with the new author pages. :) Durova (talk) 07:06, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Author:C. J. Dennis

I did it. Yann (talk) 11:29, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit]

Hi there!!! It's me from Wikipedia!! I haven't seen you around w:c:WikiChristian. Where have you been?--God'sGirl94 (talk) 15:16, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

I've been busy at Christianity Knowledge Base aka Wikia:Christianity. Kathleen.wright5 22:16, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Ahhhhh. Guess what!! I made a Christian Fiction Wiki!!--God'sGirl94 (talk) 14:37, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Propaganda

Gday. You had a play with Propaganda after it was uploaded. I was looking at it and wondered whether it may be {{copyvio}}. Author died 1995 and it was written 1928. Do you know anything about it? Its copyright status? Or were you just passing? -- billinghurst (talk) 11:51, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. Didn't want to tread somewhere if a fellow admin knew something. I have asked on the user's talk page about their knowledge of the work. -- billinghurst (talk) 13:13, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] proofreading

hello Kathleen,

thank you for your work on Occult Japan. Just a small remark : before you mark a page as proofread, please also correct its formatting (paragraphs, etc), not just the text itself : http://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Page:Occult_Japan_-_Lovell.djvu/18&oldid=1171009

ThomasV (talk) 13:30, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Flecker

Cheers for validating the Flecker pages. I see single and double spacing between the paragraphs in the intro, but I put off deciding what do about that. Cygnis insignis (talk) 15:49, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for proofing

Thanks for proofreading Inge's The Victorian Age. I thought it a nice read. If you have a small proofing project you would like done, let me know. --Mkoyle (talk) 22:49, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] The Jewish Manual

A job well done! --Eliyak T·C 00:06, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] EBD links

I have been working on EBD – Copying pages from Christ Notes and pasting them in; then putting in appropriate links to other EBD articles.

I saw that the scripture references in some of the articles are linked to the Book of the Bible from which they come. This to me seems not very useful, so I have not been doing it. If we could link them to the actual verses in some WS Bible it would be grand, but I don’t see how at this time. --MathMan64 (talk) 19:35, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] South Australia Proclamation & Marble Hill

Thank you Kathleen for the South Australia Proclamation Founding Document work you have done. I invite you to review the former summer Vice Regal Residence Marble Hill Discussion webpage as I'd appreciate your constructive comment.Mifren (talk) 13:01, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] A note about Validation month,

To let you know that an edit of yours completed the first validation of a work for the month. So now I have had the joy of needing to edit the script to +1 / -1 from the rotation, and it is only early on 3 Nov. Congrats! billinghurst (talk) 15:13, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

And another! 2 from 2. billinghurst (talk) 01:42, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
