It seems
like we would just be recreating the wheel here with this
proposal
when a good alternative already exists.
Yann has a really good initiative setting up the wikilivres.info some
mounths ago. But unfortunatelly this have limitations. Wikilivres
currently
is so much like the Wikisource at the beginning:
a ambitious
multilingual
project in a single wiki site. I know the
Wikisource project since 2004
(when I have created my first user account on
wikisource.org/wiki:
Lugusto,
User ID 568). But I'm a active editor on
Wikisource only since April
2006.
This isn't a coincidence. Is so much confuse
to work in a project like
Wikisource on a multilingual wiki. The user interface is one, you try to
search from a writer and you get a page in spanish, you try to read a
text
and get a page on italian...
At the beginning, I only thought about hosting documents in French. Then
I found that there are documents in English which might be usefully
hosted there. So now the objective it is to change Wikilivres to a fully
multilingual wiki. Just now, I have doubt about the usefulness to have
several subdomains seeing the number of users and documents, but I am
open to changes. Anyway you are much welcome to start a Portuguese
section there. And please come to discuss on #wikilivres on Freenode or
put suggestions on the wiki itself, as this is a bit offtopic here. ;o)
I aren't telling to you change wikilivres.info. It is a functional wiki for
theirs purposes. I've only replied to a question ;)
Anyway, is impossible to link to a page at the
wikilivres.info from
Wikipedia, Wikibooks (or from Wikisource itself)
without using a
external
link. This isn't userfriendly.
A solution was proposed for that.
Thanks for all that have mentioned the interwiki map. This is new to me and
I've made a request for addition.
