This talk page probably won't be read by me for a while, if you want an immediate reply, post responses on my other talk page. Thanks.

Hello, penubag, welcome to Wikisource! Thanks for your interest in the project; we hope you'll enjoy the community and your work here.

Please take a glance at our help pages (especially Adding texts and Wikisource's style guide). Most questions and discussions about the community are in the Scriptorium.

The Community Portal lists tasks you can help with if you wish. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my talk page. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 21:06, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

The Great Gatsby

Hello,

This book is still copyrighted in USA, so we can't have it on Wikisource. Thanks, Yann 22:17, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

No, public domain in Australia is not enough. Works have to be in the public domain in USA. Yann 22:26, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

If the book were PD-US but not in Australia, does Wikisource accept it? Yes, because the Wikimedia Foundation is based in USA. You can look at Wikilivres, which is based in Canada, and therefore would accept The Great Gatsby. Regards, Yann 22:35, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
