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 username if you're logged in (or IP address if you are not) 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! --EncycloPetey (talk) 20:23, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

Centralized discussion

One significant difference between Wikisource and Wikipedia is that almost all discussion happens in the Scriptorium. The exceptions being discussions about copyright, deletions, and monthly collaborations. So, you'll usually get a faster answer and broader range of responses by posting your question in the Scriptorium, rather than on the Talk page for an item. Wikisource is a much smaller community. --EncycloPetey (talk) 23:43, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

"Earl Lind" 's other works..

https://archive.org/details/autobiographyofa00lind if you had an interest.. I've so far not found the thrid part on Archive.org. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 11:48, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Thanks! I plan to upload Earl Lind's other book, too, once I'm done working on The Female-Impersonators. The third part won't be found on Archive.org, because it was never actually published. Lind tried to get it published in serialized form in a medical journal, but it never worked out in the end. --JBhistorian (talk) 18:42, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
