Status of Chronoogical Tables
[edit]Hi, someone suggested you might know of a way of obtaining a definitive Chronological Table of Statutes which could be used to populate a number of Portals to original source text of English (and later UK) Legislation. Wikisource seems to use a Short Title as means of refering to an original Act of Parliament.
However, in some instances I am not sure if the titles used as the 'semi-official' ones, the short-title used here being inffered from an 1877 Chronological Table, or the Short Titles Act 1896 Act(which clearly isn't current.), or from information at legislation.gov.uk (in the UI or text of acts themselves.)
It would therefore be appreciated if you could advise on how Wikisource could generate it's own definitive list of 'official' and 'semi-official' short titles.
A sample page at Portal:Acts_of_the_Parliament_of_the_United_Kingdom/Anne/7Ann was one of the presntation styles being considered, once some formatting issues are resolved. Your comments on would be greatly appreciated. :) ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 22:08, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
Wikisource meetup at Wikimania 2014
[edit]Wikimania 2014 will be held in London this August and it will be a great opportunity to discuss how to use the recently created Wikisource Community User Group to coordinate and to better promote Wikisource. We would like to invite the participants of each Wikisource language community to showcase the projects has been working in the past year and, of course, learn from each other experiences. See you there? Sign up in the meeting page.
