Sic transit gloria mundi

How can I go about getting this Dickinson poem restored? It was published in 1852, the first of her poems to ever be published (in the Springfield Daily Republican, see here for evidence). 57.140.16.57 15:06, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

I found it republished in Letters of Emily Dickinson (1894) - a scan is available at the Library of Congress website. I'd be willing to transcribe it and add whatever templates/sources are necessary, but I'm not sure how to go about that. 57.140.16.57 17:35, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

The poem was deleted based on the discussion at Wikisource:Copyright discussions#Emily Dickinson. It was OK to restore it, having the proof of its publication before 1929. To make sure it will not be deleted again, could you add the links to the poem's talk page too, please? -- Jan Kameníček (talk) 20:15, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean - what links should I be adding to the discussion pages? (I'm very familiar with enWP, but this is my first major go at editing Wikisource). 57.140.16.57 20:44, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

The link(s) to the source(s). --Jan Kameníček (talk) 09:06, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Done. 57.140.16.57 13:21, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Czech publications

Have you considered recommending a Czech (or Slovak) work to the Monthly Challenge for September? Maybe something that is relatively simple to proofread, yet would be valuable for Wikisource to have, but which you do not have the time to do yourself, or which you have delayed because of more immediate concerns? Even suggesting one such work every two to three months in the MC would help make that collaboration broader in scope, and perhaps attract additional editors. --EncycloPetey (talk) 19:27, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Hm, interesting idea. Will try to find something suitable. --Jan Kameníček (talk) 21:05, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
