Welcome

Hello, Balablitz, and welcome to Wikisource! Thank you for. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
 * Help pages
 * Style guide
 * Inclusion policy
 * For Wikipedians

You may be interested in participating in Add the code active projects, PotM or CotW to your page for current wikisource projects.
 * Proofread of the Month
 * Community collaboration
 * Requested texts

You can put a brief description of your interests on your user page and contributions to another Wikimedia project, such as Wikipedia and Commons.

I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikisource, the library that is free for everyone to use! In discussions, please "sign" your comments using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question here (click  [ edit] ) and place  before your question.

Again, welcome! Beeswaxcandle (talk) 04:45, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Source and copyright
Hi,

To host works at Wikisource, we need to know that a work is out of copyright, and wherever possible, the source of a work, so that its validation can be undertaken. At the moment, you haven't provided either on the works that you have added. If we cannot determine that the works are out of copyright, then the community will need to discuss whether the works are able to be hosted here. Please would you be able to look at the works that you have added and add the required detail. Thanks. — billinghurst  sDrewth  13:21, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a source for Wikisource
Hi, Wikipedia is not suitable as a source. A suitable source for a hymn would be a hymnbook that was published in the United States before 1923. Beeswaxcandle (talk) 06:51, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

P.S. Blogs are also not acceptable as sources as there is no proof that the work in question has been published. Beeswaxcandle (talk) 06:54, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
