Statutes At Large[edit]

Heya. You've probably noticed me messing with 1 Stat., even tho you validated it. I'm not actual rereading it... and I'm not trying to mess with what it looks like (other than a couple of tweaks like the bottom of the letter at Page:United States Statutes at Large Volume 1.djvu/231, and I suspect not knowing which templates to use there.

I have been, specifically, replacing the <p> inside the references with {{pbr}}. It's not that it doesn't 'work', but it's actually invalid HTML and shows up in the lint error list (<p> isn't self closing). {{nop}} and {{pbr}} actually do the same thing (which is 'fake' a paragraph break with and empty <div></div>, pbr just adds a little padding to look more like a paragraph break.

What I've actually been doing, though (other than linting) is making sure the pages are all transposed into mainspace cleanly, adding redirects to them (see https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Special:PrefixIndex?prefix=1+Stat.&namespace=0 ), and working on the list at w:List of United States federal legislation, 1789–1901 with links to the work you guys have done over here. Far better than broken 3rd party links to copies of the scans, lol, plus actually filling out the lists. Jarnsax (talk) 01:40, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]


Thank you! You are probably going to have to make a lot of changes to the way this act looks. I struggled a lot with all of those tables. Notsquaregarden (talk) 04:41, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't figure you'd mind, lol, just figured some of those edits look pretty odd... and yeah, that will be interesting. It'll probably take me a while to get that far, I'm ploinking away at several different things. Jarnsax (talk) 07:34, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I just made a couple of edits to {{USStatChapHead}} that you might want to look at. The 'default' alignment should now be justified like the doc pages says (the ragged right was terrible) and align=center (both actually) should give the correct behavior of changing to look like {{hanging indent}} once the line is wide enough to wordwrap in the reader's browser. Other than centering the second line too, and switching to hanging indent on the third (which I have no clue how to do) it should match the text better and be 'adaptive' now.

United States Statutes at Large/Volume 5/28th Congress/1st Session/Chapter 33[edit]

This page is currently orphaned - it has no pages linking to it. Is it going to have content ? -- Beardo (talk) 16:39, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No. Chapter 33 is in volume 6, so I must have created that page by mistake at some point. Notsquaregarden (talk) 07:58, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
