Equitation

I have validated Page:Equitation.djvu/372 and Page:Equitation.djvu/373 so you can see how we handle words that are broken over a page break. Thank you for helping us with Index:Equitation.djvu; we need more hands to help finish it this month. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 13:27, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for edit

Dear OrbiliusMagister, thanks for your edit into Page:Horses and roads.djvu/14. I presume, that a bot should take a look and fix my mistake; I'll think about.

But.... did we met otherwhere? I feel so but I can't remember precisely where. No matter; take a look to to Template:HAR and to Index and its links into the last pages of that book. --Alex brollo (talk) 12:11, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

Dear Billinghurst,

That's great. I tried to use these pieces of information to retrieve the biographical data needed to define is Robertson's Book is PD, but I only found that Mr. Robertson got married on July 3, 1909. But... after all "1915" means "more than 95 years ago", so these biographical data could just be currently unnecessary to upload a pdf of that book, am I right? - εΔω 10:25, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

It is PD in the US, as it is pre-1923. To know whether it is PD in the UK, we will need to know death date. So at this stage we can upload to Wikisource with {{PD-1923}}, but don't know about Commons where we need to fit within {{PD-old-70}} also. I will do some more digging to see what we can find. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:45, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
