Subpages?[edit]

Should all the poems here actually be subpages of this page? It seems odd that they're all top-level pages. Sam Wilson 08:16, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Samwilson: It is an early effort copied from Gutenberg is my guess. Ideally they should be subpages with the project backed by scans. You are free to move to subpages, but I would make sure titling (capitalization, etc.) matches that of the original... however, I could only find the Gutenberg text at IA, and Hathi Trust and Google Books don't seem to have copies available yet. An auction at eBay shows the first page of the TOC, and there are two discrepancies in TOC titling, which I have addressed on the Main page. Londonjackbooks (talk) 11:44, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Update: Found a copy at unz.org for comparative purposes. Londonjackbooks (talk) 11:50, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Londonjackbooks: Hm, yeah I wondered about that; good find though, with the unz.org one, it's this: https://archive.org/details/dreamsdustpoems00marq — I've not gone through it yet to see if it's the same edition as the PG one. Could be a candidate for match-and-split though, I guess? Sam Wilson 04:14, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
