[edit]Hello and thanks very much for your contribution. Unfortunately, translations by Wikisource users are accepted here only if they are based on a scan supported original version present on the appropriate language wiki, see WS:Translations#Wikisource original translations. Unfortunately, the version present on the Slovenian Wikisource is not scan supported and for this reason the translation is not elligible to be hosted in English Wikisource. So, should this work stay here, we definitely need to scanback the Slovenian version. Do you think you could do it? --Jan Kameníček (talk) 12:46, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hi and thanks for the reply! I have a book which has the story in it, but I don't know how to scan books. However, I do have a scanned pdf of the story from some other publication. Here is the link to it, many thanks! Jabsian (talk) 12:56, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
- What we need to make the text elligible for English Wikisource is to upload the scan to Commons and then profread it using the profread extension in the Slovenian Wikisource. I am afraid I cannot give you much advice about Slovenian Wikisource, so if you need help with this, you may try asking our Slovenian colleagues at sl:Wikivir:Pod lipo. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 18:56, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
