This is a secondhand transcription, which is no longer accepted under WS:WWI. If backed by a scan of the published text, it can be salvaged, but as a secondhand scan, it does not meet Wikisource criteria for a new text. --EncycloPetey (talk) 01:14, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- OK @EncycloPetey, yes it was secondhand from project Gutenberg. Thanks for making me aware of the policy on that, which I hadn't read. I see you put a Proposed Deletion. I suppose the redlink can remain on other pages, so that others will know that this text is needed. If I get the djvu scan at a later date, I can re-create it.
- I only added two and formatted one of the seventeen chapters anyway.
- This is a critically important text in the western intellectual history, and should be added to the wikisource library. Jaredscribe (talk) 01:31, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- As I say: If a scan of the source publication can be found, and a DjVu file (preferred, but a PDF can sometimes work) uploaded to Commons, then it can save this text. Once an Index page is set up for a scan, people often find their way to working on transcription. --EncycloPetey (talk) 01:39, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- Hello. The work is available at https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=uc1.$b286823 . If needed, I can help with downloading and creating the index page to be proofread. You can proofread the whole book, but if you proofread just the Porphyry part, it is fine as well. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 07:40, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks @Jan.Kamenicek! Sorry I've been offline for a few months; anything you can do would be appreciated. The rest of the book already on wikisource, and well annotated here: Organon_(Owen)

- It looks like @MarkLSteadman has just linked the DjVu file which was already uploaded to wikisource. Thanks!

Naftali Bennett[edit]
I can find nothing that would indicate we can host his plan; to be hosted here, it needs to be in public domain, or released under a compatible license, or be the law or edict of a national government. The plan does not seem to fall under any of those options. --EncycloPetey (talk) 00:57, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
