I guess that both into larger and into smaller wikisource projects there are plentiful of clever templates, modules and javascript tools, developed by users for practical goals.
Please take a little bit of time and import them into mul.source and la.source - the latter being something like a second "multi-language wikisource". IMHO we need to share our best ideas and tricks, and both mul,source and la.source could be good showcases for them.

Good idea! And keep in mind that it can be a good idea to keep scripts on one wiki and load them from the others using mw.loader.load() — that way there's only one place to update things, and everyone can use the same version.

Hi,
Excellent idea!
Also please add a short description of the function of those scripts and templates and tabulate them in a single page in mul.wikisource like https://wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Shared_Scripts , so that they become handy to other Wikisource projects.

Good point. That's a useful page. (Is it okay that we treat mulws as our "Meta"? It seems okay to me, but then there's some discussion about that moving to mul.wikisource.org I think...)
Maybe some of these scripts are candidates to be made into MediaWiki extensions, or are otherwise getting too big for their boots — if so, we can raise them in the Community Wishlist survey, and perhaps give them the attention they deserve! :-) (Mainly I say that because things are much easier to test etc. when they're not just text-in-wikipages.)

About mul.source, there was a hard limitation: when I worked into it, it was not possible to link its pages to wikidata. Is perhaps that issue fixed?

Thanks Sam, really my heavier script is into mul,source in my common.js user page (I've no special privileges there) and I can use it from anywhere by mw.loader.load(); with "a little bit of pain" I run it from bn.wikisource too....
