All this is way more complex than what we have at he.wikisource.

We only link the main ns0 page of a work, and usually we have only one edition of it. We don't use the index NS much, (since most of our books are either manually typed-in or OCRed privately and the text uploaded, either before or after having been proofread. If not proofread, we add a template).

This is the way our veteran users have gotten used to run things. I guess it drives would-be newcomers away. But we've been experimenting with a few works done with the Index:/Page: interface and it seems even more confusing to newcomers who don't know how to create a book from the proofread pages and see an accomplished result for their efforts.

Thanks Tpt for the quick response.

I feel that that is the situation for most Wikisources: the problem is that it's a static model, and not a procedure.

Exactly what I tried to say : the problem is practical not theorical.

 

For example:

I put a new book in my Wikisource, what should I do?

* check if is a new edition of a book in WS

if not

* check if there is already an item on WD

** if so, check if is work or edition

** if edition --> ok, link it

** if work, create edition, then link it

Workflows like this, I think, are not in place.

We would need a WikidataWizard :-D

\o/ we definitely need that !
Who could build such a WonderfulWikidataWizard ?

Cdlt, ~nicolas
