Hi AbbyRata, and welcome to Wikisource!
I have left the standard welcome message with some useful links above, but wanted to address the page Letters on the Equality of the Sexes, and the Condition of Woman specifically.
Most importantly, the page does not have source or licensing information, which all works here are required to have (without such information they may be deleted). I've placed notices to that effect on the page, and the links there should help you in adding the required information.
In addition, we strongly prefer that all works added are backed by a scan for verification purposes. See Help:Adding texts for details of how to do this and feel free to ask for help at Wikisource:Scriptorium/Help if needed. --Xover (talk) 12:27, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you Xover, I think I got the right templates added as requested. AbbyRata (talk) 02:12, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you, yes, that's excellent. However, since a scan is available for this work it is strongly preferred that you upload the scan, set up an Index: page, and proofread page by page in the Page: namespace in order to facilitate verification (as described on Help:Adding texts). Is there a particular reason you're not doing this or do you require assistance with this (admittedly not particularly intuitive) process? --Xover (talk) 09:45, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
- I'm just new. It's not intuitive. I will do my best. AbbyRata (talk) 20:45, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
