Understanding protocols
Thanks for the welcome. I've gone through the tutorial, but I'm either missing some of the terminology or just unclear on the steps. I've brought over a work from Wikicommons (Index:Remarks of Hon. J.E. Bouligny, on the secession of Louisiana (IA remarksofhonjebo00boul 0).pdf), cleaned up the pages and proofread. It still needs to validate by another reader, but at this point do I create an author page? A work page? Just sit tight until it's validated? Tcr25 (talk) 01:04, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * The author page can be created at any stage in the process. I usually do it after I've sorted out the Index: page. Once you've done the best you can with a work, then it should be "transcluded". We don't wait until validation to do that. Beeswaxcandle (talk) 03:24, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I think I have everything transcluded properly. I created Author:John Edward Bouligny and the work page (Remarks of Hon. J. E. Bouligny, on the Secession of Louisiana) and cleaned up the typesetting/formatting on the page. I'm not clear if categories go on the mainspace page or the index (right now I have them on the mainspace page). I have the author page linked to the Wikidata item, but I guess it takes time for the authority control to populate. Any guidance or corrections would be appreciated.

 * All looks good to me. Categories do indeed go on the mainspace page. I look forward to seeing your next contribution. Beeswaxcandle (talk) 18:58, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
