Gentlemen Prefer Blondes also commons:Category:Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (Boni & Liveright, 1926) for the illustrations.
other versions edit
There is a claim that this was serialized in Harper's and they held the 1926 copyright according to the notice in this scan. Could this version go into Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1926) or similar leaving the Main space (Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (novel)) open for other versions? It would be good for wikidata also.--RaboKarbakian (talk) 17:22, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- RaboKarbakian, what claim are you referring to? AnotherEditor144 t - c 19:49, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- @AnotherEditor144: On ws, {{u}} causes an underline, not a notification. Use {{ping}} or {{re}}. I read about the serialization at w:en:Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Even if that is not true, there is a 1928 movie and a musical (1947 PD is bit in the future, however). Starting with a good namespace helps in the long run. Do you have a problem with the "good for wikidata" part? --RaboKarbakian (talk) 20:03, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- @RaboKarbakian:: Firstly, thanks for pointing that about about {{u}}. Secondly, putting this into the main space will make it harder to find the Index page. Lastly, the copyright should have expired by now. -- AnotherEditor144 t - c 20:21, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- @AnotherEditor144: It will get moved anyway, I was trying to prevent the near future maintenance problem, but, I don't need to. The "Index" is always accessible from the Main space. The PD requirment for the film (they do captioning here) is less than three years from now. Finding a link to ws at english wikipedia is the way the wikis work together. Maybe wikiquote is there also (it isn't, but if there is anything in this novel that is quotable, it will be nice to have everything together). Wikivoyage made it to the moon before wikisource did, but sure, just add this text to the pile of maintenence problems here.... "Getting to the Index page easily" (whatever that means) should be worth the isolation, and the additional work for the innocent. And I did link here to an en disambiguation page, but in my defense I got to wikipedia from wikidata. Sorry.--RaboKarbakian (talk) 21:39, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
