Images
[edit]Please upload all images to Commons, instead of locally to Wikisource. On Commons, images will be available to all Mediawiki projects. --EncycloPetey (talk) 18:17, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
Image formatting: See this page Page:The Ancestor Number 1.djvu/257 We generally fo not use "thumb" as it creates a frame around the image that is not present in the original text. --EncycloPetey (talk) 18:20, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
Frank Merry Stenton
[edit]Was Stenton's wife a published author herself? You have red-linked her, suggesting that she was. Wikisource only links individuals who are published authors. --EncycloPetey (talk) 14:57, 20 October 2018 (UTC)
- EncycloPetey, yes she was, see her Wikipedia page. —Noswall59 (talk) 14:59, 20 October 2018 (UTC).
Generally, we try to keep the Author description to a minimum. It is possible to accumulate biographical data on the Author_talk page for individuals who do not have (or do not merit) a Wikipedia page. But the description parameter is not intended for a biographical dictionary entry. --EncycloPetey (talk) 01:50, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
