- Entries
EOR originally had the idea to divide the entries into a series of pages based on their first two letters: Encyclopædia Britannica, First Edition/AA, Encyclopædia Britannica, First Edition/AB, Encyclopædia Britannica, First Edition/AC, &c. This doesn't seem to have been observed with the initial additions, though; is unexpected; and would create unhelpful blobs at CH, ST, &c. while not helping much with smaller entries. This is digital, we're not running out of room, and anyone who wants to skim pages at a time instead of finding particular entries can always just use the scan pages. Simply follow the same entry format as EB9 and EB11, giving each entry its own page in title case.
- Plates
The plates should be uploaded to Wikicommons in as large a size and as high a resolution as possible. Include them in their appropriate articles.
