Hello

 

I am reading an amazing article on Wikisource, [[Alcibiades]]. It is well written and likely to be a featured article soon. My only contention is this

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcibiades#Primary_sources

 

I wonder how many of those can be Wikisource sources.

After a bit of searching I've compiled a list of links of those works listed under [[Alcibiades#Primary sources]].  A couple I couldn't find at all, but a good portion of them are listed below in case anyone wants to add some of these sources to WS before [[Alcibiades]] becomes featured.

 

Also, I noticed that WS is relatively deficient in terms of classical authors; we've got very few Greek or Roman works.  This might also be a good time to increase what we have in this area.  It might take a little bit of internet detective work to do, as Gutenberg isn't overflowing with classical works, either.
