Handling the annotations/inserts

[edit]

After thinking about how we can handle all the marks and text insertions.

For annotations on on the rev pages
  1. We type what we see exactly as is for the Page namespace, with these niceties
    1. put the requisite symbol and an {{anchor}} at the start of each annotation
    2. put section markers <section begin=name1 />text insertion annotation bits<section end=name1 />around each annotation, excluding the marker
In the body of the numbered pages, we
  1. Again type what we see, then
  2. include the requisite symbols, and hyperlink it to respective anchors
  3. utilise parser #ifeq so that only when we transclude to the main namespace we inhale the section marker. Here I am thinking something like
{{#ifeq: {{NAMESPACE}} | Page||{{#section:Page:Memoirs of Sir Isaac Newton's life.djvu/xx|name1}}

which basically inhales the snippet.

This means that the text in the main namespace is the text as it was meant to be presented, and the Page: namespace is true to the pages, and helps with proofreading. If we have a lot of snippets, which it is seeming that we are, then I would recommend that we look to template it so we have something like {{StukeleyNewton|xx|name1}}

While we could look to differentiate the inserted text in the main namespace, I don't think that is what people will want to try to decipher. For those who excite themselves with the Page namespace, they get to see the gory detail, so we may or may not wish to annotate there, and there are a number of ways we could approach. billinghurst sDrewth 10:16, 21 January 2010 (UTC) billinghurst sDrewth 10:16, 21 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
