Q: Works not backed by a scan - how are they to be presented? edit

Some works aren't backed by a scan. How are they to be handled? Is there something that visually flags, to a reader, the fact that the transcription is not backed by a scan? Are they deprecated in some way? Do I just put (unsourced) in the article's title? Is there anything else?

Example: the Anne of Green Gables book has two versions, one being a Project Gutenberg transcription that has no backing scan. John O'Hanley (talk) 23:35, 2 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello. I am really sorry nobody has reacted to your "help me" request. Now I can see that you already work with scans, so I guess you already know the answers. If you have any further questions, ping me directly, and I will try to help. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 01:45, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
