Discussion edit
Spaces around dashes edit
Do we leave spaces (before and) after mdashes, like on this page? - Dick Bos (talk) 14:39, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
- I say after mdash, yes, but before mdash, no. Like this. Moondyne (talk) 14:49, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
- The standard is to not leave spaces before or after a dash so I haven't been leaving any. The Haz talk 21:31, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- So what's the conclusion? Spaces or no spaces? I was proofreading page 236, and in this sentence "—Perhaps you can tell me—he said—why he pours his soul so freely into my ear. Can you?—" what do you suggest should the spacings be (both before and after) for the four em-dashes? --Siddhant (talk) 07:27, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- No spaces looks fine. I'll do likewise. Moondyne (talk) 11:53, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
= Hyphens edit
In a couple of places I found that hyphens are used, whilst the scanned text doesn't have one. For instance in the first line of this page. Until now I have removed the hyphens. Is that correct? That's my first question.
Next question: what about the "red(-)eyed mother" on this page ? - Dick Bos (talk) 21:02, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
More fixes needed edit
