File:Jungle Tales of Tarzan).djvu

Hi EmusWiki,

Thanks for your work on Index:Jungle Tales of Tarzan.djvu!

I noticed that you'd uploaded the illustration from p. 28 locally here on enWS in DjVu format. We usually do not use DjVu for single images (DjVu is primarily a multi-page format, and there are much better formats for single images) and unless there is a specific reason (usually related to licensing and copyright policy) we upload them to Commons instead of locally (for several reasons, but mainly so other projects can use them too).

I've extracted the image from that page (for scans from the Internet Archive, you can find these from the "Download Options" box by clicking "Show all"; there's usually a browsable zip file with all the single-page scan images) and uploaded it to Commons as c:File:Jungle Tales of Tarzan (1919), p.28.png (and an extra copy in JPEG just in case we need a solid white rather than transparent background for anything). You can see it in place on Page:Jungle Tales of Tarzan.djvu/40.

Since it is no longer needed that I can tell, I've also deleted File:Jungle Tales of Tarzan).djvu (please let me know if I've misunderstood anything!).

Please feel free to ping me or ask on Wikisource:Scriptorium/Help if you need assistance.

PS. If you ever need to upload anything locally here on enWS, please make sure you include the information and licensing templates suggested in the editnotice on the top of the page. For every file we need to know the author, date, licensing or copyright status, etc.; and files without this information will fill up our maintenance categories. --Xover (talk) 08:18, 26 January 2020 (UTC)

Hi@Xover: Thank you so much your message. I'm relatively new to Wikisource. I will be sure to take note of this in the future. I still have a lot of learn. But I'm so interested everything, the proofreading, the validation here on enWS. Thank you again so much :) EmusWiki (talk) 11:59, 26 January 2020 (UTC)

The double line spacing between letters and diary entries is intentional. It separates the varu=ious sections of the text from each other. Without the double line spacing, all the elements run together. --EncycloPetey (talk) 15:17, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi, okay, thanks for your message. -- EmusWiki (talk) 06:35, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Will you be putting the double line returns back in, or will someone else need to do that? --EncycloPetey (talk) 14:58, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Okay, I'll do it -- EmusWiki (talk) 15:05, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
