Index talk:Austen - Pride and Prejudice, third edition, 1817.djvu
Formatting Prose: edit
Inorder to keep consistence I've made the following poses: edit
tête-à-tête edit
- Don't italicize unless specified in text.
- Use this format inorder to keep consistant throught title, and throughout wikimedia sister sites, see http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/t%C3%AAte-%C3%A0-t%C3%AAte .
Line break at end of chapter edit
- {{rule|5em}}{{rule|height=2px|5em}}
- Keep inside Footer.
- Although putting it in the footer prevents it from showing up in the end result of a chapter (ex. http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Pride_and_Prejudice/Chapter_1#5 ).
- this will keep it consistant with existing edits and situations such as http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:Austen_-_Pride_and_Prejudice,_third_edition,_1817.djvu/91 .
Un-capitalized first letter of sentence edit
- Status, to be determined.
- See examples:
| Please forgive my ignorance, I'm new at this. | Rochefoucauld (talk) 15:52, 26 August 2013 (UTC) |
Punctuation edit
IMO this text needs another careful reading to check punctuation, capitalization, etc. The punctuation is important in these early editions of Austen because later editions included significant revisions to the punctuation. Early editions can be studied to compare to later ones. But it appears that the text may have been copied from another source, with later punctuation revisions.
My understanding is that WS includes the text exactly as on the printed page, including even the most obvious printer's errors. Errors should be marked with {{sic}} or {{SIC}} as appropriate.
I have found changes starting on p. 2 of this text. I will try to get to working on it, but I've just started working on Emma and I have several other projects going on. Laura1822 (talk) 14:31, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
