A question about [page] tag[edit]

That [page] link that wastes the text when in its middle... can it be hidden/avoided?

I could use the usual transclusion grammar, but I don't know how to use it for a section transclusion. --Alex brollo 08:17, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One solution is to place the transcluded text inside a rudimentary table, with a little extra blank space on the left side where the “[page]” marker can show up unobstructed. For example, see The Wind in the Willows/Chapter 1 and this recent discussion at the Scriptorium.
If you want to transclude sections without using the {{Page}} template, it’s not difficult. Just use <section begin=name /> and <section end=name /> tags to mark the starting and ending points of the text to be transcluded, then use
{{#lst:Page name|section name}}
wherever you want to retrieve the tagged section text. For example, I see you have marked sections already on Page:The Modern Art of Taming Wild Horses.djvu/57. You can transclude them individually without using {{Page}} thusly:
{{#lst:Page:The Modern Art of Taming Wild Horses.djvu/57|c37}} {{#lst:Page:The Modern Art of Taming Wild Horses.djvu/57|c38}}
Hope that is useful to you. Tarmstro99 14:03, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes! Just what I needed. No I'm using three different transclusion tools, i.e.:

{{Page|The Modern Art of Taming Wild Horses.djvu/22|section=c4}}
{{:Page:The Modern Art of Taming Wild Horses.djvu/23}}
{{#lst:Page:The Modern Art of Taming Wild Horses.djvu/24|c5}}

The result is excellent IMO. Thanks --Alex brollo 11:47, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Different translations rules into it.source[edit]

I tried to post into it.source my previous Italian translation of this booklet, but policy of it.source is really strict about translations; they don't accept user translations at all. :-(

So, I'm thinking about publishing the translation into it.wikibooks, where original works by users are welcome. --Alex brollo 11:26, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could you point us towards any discussion you had with the community there? John Vandenberg (chat) 02:20, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
See this help page (I apologize, I didn't found it before!): it:Aiuto:Niente_traduzioni_originali. My talks have no relevance, because this help page explains wholly the local policy about translanslations. --Alex brollo 11:28, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
