  • Edit
This work was transcribed or copied from a transcription of the original, rather than the original itself. It therefore has second-hand provenance. You can improve the provenance of this work by transcribing a scan, or proofing it against a hardcopy, of the original work. Once this is complete, update the textinfo message, and remove this message.

Usage

edit

Add this template to the talk pages of any work that has been copied from a transcription rather than the primary source (such as texts copied from other online digital libraries).

Wikisource may be repeating errors made by the original transcribers or otherwise not necessarily presenting an accurate text. This template provides this information to the reader and adds a tracking category.

Parameters

edit
  • scan: A link to a scan (external or as an Index page) of the work
  • notes: Additional notes

Example

{{Second-hand
 | notes = These are notes
 | scan  = [[Index:Lange - The Blue Fairy Book.djvu]]
}}
This work was transcribed or copied from a transcription of the original, rather than the original itself. It therefore has second-hand provenance. You can improve the provenance of this work by transcribing a scan, or proofing it against a hardcopy, of the original work.

These are notes
A scan exists, but it may not correspond exactly to the edition reproduced here: Index:Lange - The Blue Fairy Book.djvu

Categorisation

edit

This template adds pages to Category:Works with second-hand provenance. Categorisation will only occur when the template is placed correctly on a talk page associated with the main namespace.
