Use direct formatting for poetry[edit]

As many poems are across multiple page, it is probably best to use the direct formatting for poetry, rather than the simpler <poem> markup. See the help for more info. David Nind (talk) 11:53, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Use curly quotes[edit]

Let’s type proper quote marks for apostrophes and quotes please: ’ ‘ “ ” David Nind (talk) 11:55, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Centre poems (using {{bc/s}} and {{bc/e}})[edit]

I found it a bit difficult to determine sometimes whether a poem is centred on the page or left aligned.

So I decided to centre all poems. David Nind (talk) 11:56, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Poem title/heading - make larger[edit]

I think the titles for poems when the first occur should be larger, so use {{c|larger|POEM TITLE}}}} David Nind (talk) 11:59, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Spacing between verses[edit]

I've left a single line between verses for consistency, even though some poems have more spacing,

Happy to change. David Nind (talk) 18:26, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Use {{uc}} for capitalised words[edit]

I have used {{uc}} for capitalised words, often used at the start of the first verse of a poem. I have left headings and titles in capitals. Not sure whether this is correct, but it is now used consistently throughout the book. David Nind (talk) 19:46, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
