Agreed. I tend to look at Wikisource as a place where material is
relatively much less editable than onWikipedia, but not completely
uneditable. This mostly works. But that could be because some of the
texts are so long that they discourage editing. There are features that
I would love to have that would make translations and annotations more
convenient, but I can be patient in waiting for them. 8-)
