You can put a brief description of your interests on your user page and contributions to another Wikimedia project, such as Wikipedia and Commons.

I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikisource, the library that is free for everyone to use! In discussions, please "sign" your comments using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your username if you're logged in (or IP address if you are not) and the date. If you need help, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question here (click edit) and place {{helpme}} before your question.

Again, welcome! — billinghurst sDrewth 05:20, 4 October 2016 (UTC)

Sources required, and preferably scans

Hi. Where the Wikipedias require citable references for statements, we require links or clearly identified sources to demonstrate that the work is out of copyright, and is a published work (WS:WWI). Ideally we look to work from available scans as that allows other people to verify someone's proofreading and make for a better quality reproduction. More information in the above links. — billinghurst sDrewth 22:22, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

Scans that are no longer under copyright in their country of origin should be uploaded to Commons, rather than to Wikisource. That way, they are available for use on any MediaWiki project. --EncycloPetey (talk) 23:00, 9 October 2016 (UTC)
