Cross-namespace redirects[edit]

Hi, IL. Just a heads-up--we don't usually create redirects to other namespaces on Wikisource, which is why I deleted this page. Best regards,—Clockery Fairfeld [t·c] 14:38, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Understood, my bad. Thanks, Illegitimate Barrister (talk) 08:28, 9 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keeping the body for the work[edit]

For a work like Letter to Samuel Chapman - 4 June 1907, we would put commentary into the notes field, rather than add something that is not specifically a reference. The philosophy being to keep the body for the actual work (and yes we aer still tidying up older such works). Similarly for these works we might also use the edition parameter of {{header}} and put a note onto the talk page within {{textinfo}}. — billinghurst sDrewth 22:12, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, thanks. Sorry about that, I'll try to keep that in mind in the future. Regards, Illegitimate Barrister (talk) 03:04, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
