Welcome
Hello, Brenont, and welcome to Wikisource! Thank you for joining the project. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
You may be interested in participating in
Add the code {{active projects}}, {{PotM}} or {{CotW}} to your page for current wikisource projects.
You can put a brief description of your interests on your user page and contributions to another Wikimedia project, such as Wikipedia and Commons.
I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikisource, the library that is free for everyone to use! In discussions, please "sign" your comments using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question here (click edit) and place {{helpme}} before your question.

Fidelity[edit]
Wikisource maintains texts as they were printed. Wikisource does not modernize spelling, phrasing, or punctuation to modern norms. In many cases, 19th-century standards differ from those used in the 21st century. For example, in place the modern word "percent", it is common to see "per cent." as an abbreviation of Latin per centum in 19th-century texts. Please do not modernize texts, but do correct texts to more closely match their printed originals where a scan is available for comparison. --EncycloPetey (talk) 22:55, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
