Wikibooks:Requests for deletion/Historical Documents

Historical Documents
Wikibooks is not a repository of source texts, and that's what this book is providing. All the links are red even after a month or more of work, and I think we need to stop this now before wasted effort goes into it. -within focus 17:05, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Where can I put in sources other than wikisource, since they have alot of the documents?
 * The documents are already on wikisource?-- SB_Johnny | talk 21:30, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * If the documents are already on wikisource, I can't imagine you would need to upload another copy anywhere else. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 21:54, 5 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep book. Delete original source document once confirmed at Wikisource. - The only original source document that I could see was contributed by someone other than User:Tannersf. That single page should be at Wikisource, but the rest of the book has all the potential to be a valuable book of annotated texts. I'll contact Tannersf regarding defining a scope for the book and regarding putting this on Wikisource. --Swift 17:50, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Source already available on Wikisource: Declaration of Arbroath. --Swift 18:21, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - Swift, if you do contact the editor maybe a suggestion to move this into his own namespace (and consider some of his other work that may have been published "too early") might be a sensible solution?? -- Herby talk thyme 08:23, 7 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment. If it's properly annotated, then we can keep it. Wikibooks is allowed to contain original source material if it is part of an annotated text. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 02:52, 7 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete unless evidence of intent to annotate surfaces. Cheers, Iamunknown 17:53, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
