Welcome

Hello, Aphillipsmusique, and welcome to Wikisource! Thank you for joining the project. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

 

You may be interested in participating in

Add the code {{active projects}}, {{PotM}} or {{CotW}} to your page for current wikisource projects.

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 IP address (or username if you're logged in) 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! Beeswaxcandle (talk) 02:58, 25 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Pages for works

edit

Hi. We don't put place holder pages in place for works in copyright, they are considered out of scope. We would list them on the author page, and you can utilise {{copyright until}} on the translator's page. — billinghurst sDrewth 04:56, 22 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Files without source, license or author

edit

Hello. When you uploaded the first three files, you used {{subst:uwl}}, which didn’t work because there is no {{uwl}} template on Wikisource. With the first file I’m guessing it may be PD, but cannot say without a source. The fourth one says it is sourced from Wikipedia but that is not sufficient for licensing purposes. Could you please add an {{information}} box with an author and source to each file page plus either a CC-license, a PD-tag or a {{Fair Use}} tag. If not, please tag them for speedy deletion? Cheers.

@Cromium: Comment: There is no validity to {{Fair Use}}, since fair use is not allowed at Wikisource, per WS:WWI and WS:CP. I've nominated that template for deletion, since it's mislead at least two people at this point. PseudoSkull (talk) 20:11, 3 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Don R. is missing… source information

edit

Hi Aphillipsmusique,

In doing some maintenance on our image files I ran across File:DON R. MISSING western union.jpg, which you uploaded, and which is missing authorship and source information. Is there any chance you can recall from where you got it, or track down a source for it? --Xover (talk) 12:03, 20 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
