User talk:Derek Ross
Hello Derek Ross, welcome to Wikisource! Thanks for your interest in the project; we hope you'll enjoy the community and your work here.
You'll find an (incomplete) index of our works listed at Wikisource:Works, although for very broad categories like poetry you may wish to look at the categories like Category:Poems instead.
Please take a glance at our help pages (especially Adding texts and Wikisource's style guide). Most questions and discussions about the community are in the Scriptorium.
The Community Portal lists tasks you can help with if you wish. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my talk page! John Vandenberg (chat) 23:36, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Robert Burns readings missing required licence information[edit]
Hi Derek. In going through some maintenance backlogs I came across your two uploads: File:HonestPoverty1.ogg and File:ToAMouse.ogg. These are both lacking the licensing information that's required for hosting on Wikisource. Could you please update these to add an explicit license tag? Typical choices would be {{CC0}} to release it into the public domain with nno rights reserved, {{CC-BY-SA-4.0}} for the Creative Commons Attribution+Share Alike license, or {{CC-BY-4.0}} for the Creative Commons Attribution license. See Help:License templates and c:Commons:Licensing for further information. Without licensing information the files may have to be deleted, which would be a real shame, so it'd be very much appreciated!
PS. Once license information is in place these files will be moved from Wikisource to Wikimedia Commons so that they are more easily discoverable and can be reused on the other Wikimedia projects. --Xover (talk) 16:50, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
- Cheers! I'll do that. -- Derek Ross (talk) 17:22, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you. Much appreciated! --Xover (talk) 18:05, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
Latin works to Latin Wikisource[edit]
Hi. We don't host Latin language works, they belong at Latin Wikisource. I have returned Declaration of Arbroath to its prior state. — billinghurst sDrewth 09:42, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
