Basic formatting is desirable, but attempts to exactly reproduce an original may be cumbersome and inaccessible. The aim is to give an authentic digital transcription of the content, not an imitation of a printed page; to produce a <i>type</i> facsimile rather than a <i>photographic</i> facsimile. Basic formatting to retain includes <i>italic</i>, <b>bold</b>, <span class="smallcaps" style="font-variant:small-caps;">Small Caps</span>, <span style="font-size: 83%;">relative font size</span>, and footnotes<sup style="font-size:66%; vertical-align:0.6em; line-height:0px;">[1]</sup> (see the <a href="/wiki/Help:Editing" title="Help:Editing">editing help page</a>).</li> <li><b>Page layout</b> should mimic the original page layout within limits, but avoid unnecessary complexity that makes the text difficult to edit or read.

The template {{<a href="/wiki/Template:Page_end_hyphen" title="Template:Page end hyphen">page end hyphen</a>}} can be used with an em dash as the first unnamed parameter (like so: <span style="white-space:nowrap;">{{<a href="/wiki/Template:Peh" class="mw-redirect" title="Template:Peh">peh</a>|—}}</span>) at the end of the page, which will automatically remove the space when transcluded into mainspace.</dd> <dd>If there is a dash at the <i>start</i> of a page, a space is added to the left of the dash when transcluded. The template {{<a href="/wiki/Template:Unspaced_page_end" title="Template:Unspaced page end">unspaced page end</a>}} can be added to the end of the preceding page to prevent this from happening.</dd></dl></li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis" class="extiw" title="w:Ellipsis">Ellipses</a> of omission should be entered as the actual character (<i>i.e.</i> … rather than ... or . . .) without surrounding spaces. However, note that not all strings of dots within written dialogue are ellipses of omission. In some cases, an author uses a sequence of three or more dots to indicate a pause, and in such situations there should be separate consecutive dots in order to preserve the tempo of the dialogue.</li></ul></li></ol> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Wikilinks" data-mw-thread-id="h-Wikilinks-General_guidelines"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Wikilinks-General_guidelines"></span>Wikilinks<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Wikilinks-General_guidelines"></span></h3></div> <div class="rellink boilerplate seealso" style="margin-left:2em;font-style:italic">See also: <a href="/wiki/Wikisource:Wikilinks" title="Wikisource:Wikilinks">Wikisource guidance document regarding links</a></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r13856904"><div class="wst-shortcut noprint"><div><div><div> <p><span><a href="/wiki/Wikisource:Shortcut" title="Wikisource:Shortcut">Shortcut</a>: </span><br/><a href="/wiki/Wikisource:LINKSTYLE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikisource:LINKSTYLE">WS:LINKSTYLE</a> </p> </div></div></div></div><p>Links to other parts of works, other texts, and author pages at wikisource can be added to the text. By using the pipe syntax, <code>[[target's title|displayed title]]</code>, the appearance of the displayed text is not affected. Most links improve navigation within the work, or to another work at wikisource, by using a reference in the text. </p><ol><li><b>Plain links</b>. The author's references to other works can be made with a plain wikilink, for example, <code>[[Poetical Sketches]]</code> will be displayed in the text, "... of especial interest is the publication of his <i><a href="/wiki/Poetical_Sketches" title="Poetical Sketches">Poetical Sketches</a></i>,"—<span style="font-size: 83%;">Swinburne, <i>William Blake, a critical essay</i>, <a href="/wiki/William_Blake,_a_critical_essay/Life_and_designs#8" title="William Blake, a critical essay/Life and designs">p. 8</a></span></li> <li><b>Relative links</b>. When the <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Link#Subpage_feature" class="extiw" title="m:Help:Link">subpage feature</a> is used to organise a work, then relative wikilinks can be used in the {{<a href="/wiki/Template:Header" title="Template:Header">Header</a>}} template. This creates shorter code and ensures that a work remains linked together even if it is moved or reorganised. The three formats are <ul><li>subpage <code>[[/subpage]]</code>;</li> <li>parent <code>[[../]]</code>, and</li> <li>sibling <code>[[../sibling]]</code>, most usage in Previous/Next parameters in {{<a href="/wiki/Template:Header" title="Template:Header">header</a>}}<br/>Note that [[../]] will expand to the title of the parent page, which is ideal if the work is renamed at a later time. For long titles, you can pipe the link either manually or by using the {{<a href="/wiki/Template:Sibling" title="Template:Sibling">Sibling</a>}} template. <br/>These can also be used to create a link from one part of the text to another, relative links from a table of contents to chapters or sections (title to subpage), from an index (subpage to subpage), or any reference given to another part of the work.</li></ul></li> <li><b>Deep links</b>. Plain and relative links can be made to subpages by using the code: <code>[[Title/subpage|displayed title]]</code>. It is also possible to link a line or other section of the page by naming an anchor, or other label, using #. The syntax is <code>[[Title#label|displayed title]]</code>. The target's name can be inserted with an {{<a href="/wiki/Template:Anchor" title="Template:Anchor">anchor</a>}}, or by identifying the page number where those are displayed, This label's name or number is added at the end of the link's title <code>#label</code> as <code>[[Title/subpage#name|displayed title]]</code> or <code>#number</code> <code>[[Title/subpage#42|displayed title]]</code>.</li> <li><b>Author links</b>. To create a link to a person's page in the author namespace, use <code>[[Author:Page name|name in text]].</code></li> <li><p><b>External links:</b> Mediawiki sites that provide specific pages on a work can be linked from the notes section of the header. These links provide another context for a work, an article, quotes, or other media, and should be separate from the source document. The page at wikisource for '<a href="/wiki/The_Raven_(Poe)" title="The Raven (Poe)">The Raven (Poe)</a>' shows the versions of that poem hosted here, but also links the wikipedia article <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Raven" class="extiw" title="w:The Raven">The Raven</a>, the commons category <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:The_Raven" class="extiw" title="commons:Category:The Raven">The Raven</a>.</p><p><b><span class="smallcaps" style="font-variant:small-caps;">Note:</span></b> Placing external links in the source text is a form of annotation and there is no consensus on whether this is proper. Development of annotated texts is unobjectionable when separated from the source document, leaving a 'clean text'. Any guidance remains subjective, but the following can be cautiously applied:</p><p> Words or references that may be difficult to understand can be linked to their <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia" class="extiw" title="w:Wikipedia">Wikipedia</a> or <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiktionary" class="extiw" title="w:Wiktionary">Wiktionary</a> entries using the syntax <code>[[w:Article|word]]</code> (Wikipedia) or <code>[[wikt:Article|word]]</code>. Commonly used words or well-known references should not be linked. Words may be specifically used in a historical or cultural context. For example, the phrase <i>Duke of York</i> may refer to <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_II_of_England" class="extiw" title="w:James II of England">James II of England</a></i> rather than the actual phrase <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_of_York" class="extiw" title="w:Duke of York">Duke of York</a></i>, or a reference to <i>The Prime Minister</i> may refer to <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Blair" class="extiw" title="w:Tony Blair">Tony Blair</a></i> rather than the term <i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_Minister" class="extiw" title="w:Prime Minister">Prime Minister</a></i>.</p></li> <li>Keeping the body of the page for the work, this means that we wish to replicate the book as it was published, and <span class="smallcaps" style="font-variant:small-caps;">not</span> have the addition of <b>See also</b> sections, etc. have all been deprecated (see above dot point for external links).</li> <li>See also <a href="/wiki/Category:Internal_link_templates" title="Category:Internal link templates">Category:Internal link templates</a> for existing linking templates.</li></ol> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Disambiguation,_versions_and_translations_pages" data-mw-thread-id="h-Disambiguation,_versions_and_translations_pages-General_guidelines"><span id="Disambiguation.2C_versions_and_translations_pages"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Disambiguation,_versions_and_translations_pages-General_guidelines"></span>Disambiguation, versions and translations pages<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Disambiguation,_versions_and_translations_pages-General_guidelines"></span></h3></div> <div class="rellink boilerplate seealso" style="margin-left:2em;font-style:italic">See also: <a href="/wiki/Help:Disambiguation" title="Help:Disambiguation">Help:Disambiguation</a></div> <p>A <b>disambiguation</b> page is a page listing works with the same title.
