Welcome to Wikisource

Hello, David Trochos, 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 {{Collaboration/MC}} 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 username if you're logged in (or IP address if you are not) 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.

Again, welcome!

Hey, cool contribution: Icelandic volcanoes,1783-4: contemporary reports. I see your annotations, but can you clarify where you got. Any annotations in the text should also be from a public domain source, let me know if you need some help. Regards, Cygnis insignis (talk) 19:41, 17 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the reply. If the annotations are yours there is no problem with regard to copyright. There are a number of solutions to separating unpublished text from the source; I put them in the notes section of the {{header}}, there are also some templates like {{User annotation}} for inline notes. If you want to use this template, type this <ref>{{User annotation|Your note}}</ref> at the reference and add {{smallrefs}} at the bottom of the page. The result is:

A line of original text.[1]
