The top layer contains only the one, main portal, <a href="/wiki/Portal:Portals" title="Portal:Portals">Portal:Portals</a>. The main portal links to every portal in the second layer. The second layer is made up portals corresponding to the 23 classes used on Wikisource, based on the 21 classes of the Library of Congress Classification system. These in turn link to the portals of the third layer, which are made up of portals corresponding directly to the individual subclasses. The fourth layer is made up of an unlimited number of child portals within the subclassification. The fifth layer is made up of an unlimited number of grandchild portals, expanding on topics in the child portals (these portals will link to the child portal in their headers rather than to the class and subclass as normal). Technically, a chain of grandchild portals is possible beneath a child portal but this should be rare. </p><p>Where there is not enough material to justify a standalone portal, the is included in the next level up. In some cases, the third layer may be circumvented, with the class portal linking directly to the child portal(s). When enough material has been collected, a new portal can be created in order to index it. </p><p>In addition to this, portals should link to similar portals on Wikisource to allow readers to browse or locate specific information. These links do not need to be restricted to the same layer or branch of the hierarchy, nor restricted in any other way. </p><p>Separate to this hierarchy (or beneath it) is <a href="/wiki/Portal:Index" title="Portal:Index">Portal:Index</a>. As the name implies, this is a list of all portals on Wikisource, which can be used to easily find and navigate to any portal if direct linking from one to the other is not possible. The portal categories can be used for the same thing. The class and subclass portals (second and third layers) are shown in bold in the Index, with the class portal listed first. Child and grandchild portals are listed in normal typeface beneath the corresponding subclass; grandchild portals are listed in parentheses (or brackets) after the child portal. </p><p>All portals should have links in the header to the corresponding class portal and, where appropriate, subclass portal. These are repeated in the header bar and in the box to the left of the notes field. The box also has links to the the main portal and to the index. (As mentioned, grandchild portals link to child portals instead.) </p><p>Portals should also link to portals of the same topic on other projects, either sister projects of the same language (eg. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Portal" class="extiw" title="w:Wikipedia:Portal">Wikipedia</a>) or Wikisources in other languages (eg. <a href="https://fr.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Portails" class="extiw" title="fr:Wikisource:Portails">French Wikisource</a>). This is done in the same way as it would be in any other page. At the same time, it would be helpful to add a link back to the Wikisource portal from these other projects. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Subject" data-mw-thread-id="h-Subject"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Subject"></span>Subject<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Subject"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Help:Portals&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Subject"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A portal should have a specific subject, which will be its title.

[[Portal:Caliphs]] rather than [[Portal:Caliphs|Caliphs]]).

This system is intended to make navigation within the portal space as simple as possible using a reliable and recognised classification system. Therefore, each portal needs a classification. This takes the form of a 2-3 letter code, made of a class and a subclass. The full list of possible classifications are listed at <a href="/wiki/Help:Portal_classification" title="Help:Portal classification">Help:Portal classification</a> and <a href="/wiki/Portal:Index" title="Portal:Index">Portal:Index</a>, except for the Law subclasses which are listed separately at <a href="/wiki/Portal:Law/Subclasses" title="Portal:Law/Subclasses">Portal:Law/Subclasses</a> (class K has more than the average number of subclasses). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Choose_a_class" data-mw-thread-id="h-Choose_a_class-Classification"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Choose_a_class-Classification"></span>Choose a class<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Choose_a_class-Classification"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Help:Portals&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Choose a class"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The first step in classifying a portal is to select the class.

They should not normally be created in anticipation of future material, as portals can always be created once this future material exists. Creating too many new portals too soon can serve to dilute the overall subject area. Lots of similar portals with only a handful of works in each makes browsing and searching the portal-space tiresome and reduces the basic usefulness of an index. There is no minimum number of works for a portal. However, at least having the number of works in the high single figures, if not double figures, is recommended. </p><p>There may be some special cases where a portal should be created even if there are only one or two relevant works. For example, if the author of a work is an <i>organization</i> rather than a <i>person</i>, then a portal should be created for that organization to function as the "author" page linked to that work. </p><p>If an existing portal is getting too long, subsections from that portal can be split off and used as the base for a new portal. This should not, however, leave the original portal empty or nearly empty. The concept of "too long" and which subsection(s) to split off are a matter of individual judgement and up to the editor. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="If_you_cannot_classify_the_portal" data-mw-thread-id="h-If_you_cannot_classify_the_portal-Other_considerations"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-If_you_cannot_classify_the_portal-Other_considerations"></span>If you cannot classify the portal<span data-mw-comment-end="h-If_you_cannot_classify_the_portal-Other_considerations"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Help:Portals&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: If you cannot classify the portal"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>If you cannot find an appropriate classification for the portal, leave the class parameter blank.

The most appropriate way to categorise a portal is into the nearest equivalent category.

Subpages can be used for several reasons, including the creation of appendix-like support pages and obvious subdivisions of the main portal (ie. year, reign, session etc).

In the case of portals, it is useful to link to similar portals on other projects if they exist. Some of the sister projects use different namespaces and not all use portals. Wikipedia, Wikiversity and Wikinews use portals. As well as portals, Wikiversity also has the School: and Topic: namespaces fulfilling slightly similar functions (and to which it may be better to link). Wikibooks uses the Subject: namespace to sort its content in a way that is similar to Wikisource portals. </p><p>As well as placing a link <i>from</i> the Wikisource portal to equivalent pages on sister projects, it helps to place links on the sister projects back <i>to</i> the portal on Wikisource. Individual pages, such as Wikipedia articles, can also link back to a Wikisource portal. In the case of Wikipedia, the {{Wikisource index}} template can be added to the external links section of the article (or similar).
