Strategy[edit]

My strategy for this volume will be to first mark all of the pages which don't need to be proofread and then install the illustrations. I will do this before I specify header and footer material in the index, because this material isn't needed and is just a nuisance when marking the blank pages and installing the illustrations.

Style[edit]

I prefer to keep the line breaks in the text as I think they make it easier to proofread, and, contrary to some pronouncements I have run into, they do not create problems for transclusion if properly handled. I also use curly quote marks as I think they look better. Inter-page hyphenations are explicitly specified due to the transclusion method I use which transcludes page by page using {{page}}, with pages sometimes divided into sections. This allows a better placement of the illustrations, though now the system seems to find reason to complain when it is used. Bob Burkhardt (talk) 21:31, 16 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
