It is news to me that Wikibooks wants to have /unedited/ sources; I know that Wikibooks wants to have /annotated/ sources, but since Wikipedia wants to have the very same thing, I don't think that storing original sources in Wikibooks is the right thing. On Wikisource, they can be made use of by any other project, Wikibook /and/ Wikipedia (and even Wiktionary if it likes, although in that case I can't imagine why it would want them). Yes, annotated public domain works are within the mission, even if you limit it to textbooks for a schoolcourse, because anthologies are used like literature textbooks. But then again, annotated public domain documents on a smaller scale are within the mission of an encylcopaedia -- they are in paper ones now. And that's why they have been appearing on various Wikipedias lately -- which IIRC is how this whole thread got started in the first place! So Wikisource should have all sources in one big wiki, because all languages want the same original documents. And both Wikipedia and Wikibooks can call those sources up (by copying them now, but perhaps in a more sophisticated, integrated way if anybody writes the code to do the magic) and annotate them (in whichever way is appropriate, for an encylcopaedia or an anthology). That would be great. I can't even remember what they all are! Maybe mav (or anybody that knows) can put one up on [[meta:]]? -- Toby
