Sources required for unsupported works edit

Hi. Would you be so kind to add source details to each of the additions for "Laws of the Game". Sources of works are important for the Wikisources, like citations are for Wikipedia. At Wikisource that is usually undertaken by

  1. addition of edition = yes to the {{header}} template creating a link to the corresponding talk page; then
  2. adding source to the respective talk pages using {{textinfo}} template

You will also see that I have added {{similar}} to Laws of the Game (1866) as a guide to how we link to disambiguation page, now created. Ping me if you need assistance. — billinghurst sDrewth 22:43, 12 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

body of namespace of works edit

Hi. We have looked to reserve the body of main namespace pages for the published work — which hasn't necessarily worked through all our older works. Commentary and the like is into the notes section of the work. If we are looking for a lot more notes/commentary/curated space for a subject, then that is when we utilise the Portal: ns pages, and these we often link to the wikipedia article through wikidata. We don't overly lengthen notes sections as we do wish to display the work primarily. — billinghurst sDrewth 00:45, 15 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
