On the ordinances and resolutions I have transcribed thus far, I have employed a monospace font in an effort to duplicate as best I can the style and formatting of the original documents. Not sure how I feel about it though. Any feedback?

What do you think of using Category:Source documents (or some subcategory thereof) on all pages in the Source namespace? — admin • talk  13:18, 18 September 2009 (CDT)

I would even prefer sub-categories, like Category:City of Pensacola ordinances, Category:British West Florida source documents etc. — dscossontalk  14:41, 18 September 2009 (CDT)
Right, definitely. But just as a main depository to hold all the other subcategories, does "Category:Source documents" work? — admin • talk  15:57, 18 September 2009 (CDT)
Oh yeah, for sure. — dscossontalk  10:19, 19 September 2009 (CDT)

Formatting[edit]

On the ordinances and resolutions I have transcribed thus far, I have employed a monospace font in an effort to duplicate as best I can the style and formatting of the original documents. Not sure how I feel about it though. Any feedback?

Unless we're trying to match a very specific formatting, I actually prefer the default sans serif font. We may want to create a kind of header box to separate the text itself from an intro description, like Wikisource does. But I'm fine with whatever. — admin • talk  07:04, 21 September 2009 (CDT)
Alright. I'm down with the header idea if you want to take the time sometime to implement it. I'm too dumb. — dscossontalk  07:15, 21 September 2009 (CDT)
