DNBer!

Just in case you have the interest, there is Wikisource:WikiProject DNB. We try to highlight some little tips and tricks to make things easier. Main pages to look at are Proofreading and {{DNBset}}. There are a number of people round to give help either in the project space, or over at Scriptorium. billinghurst (talk) 14:40, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

I have marked Page:Dictionary of National Biography volume 54.djvu/187 as Proofread (radio button), and you are welcome to go back and double check and mark as Validated. billinghurst (talk) 23:53, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

When transcluding a middle page ...

A quick note. When one is transcluding a complete page, one doesn't need to put section markers onto it. It is sufficient to put the markers (section begin/end) on the initial page (from=(page) & fromsection=(section)) and then on again on the final page (to=(page) & tosection=(section)), and this will inhale the pages in between. billinghurst sDrewth 10:29, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
