Note: it seems to me to be appropriate to add the LV template to Wikipedia External Links, but the url must be carefully thought through to include all of the current LV listings (I found 2 LV listings for this poem, which were sourced from 2 different books) without including similarly named but unrelated listings. Any suggestions?
I think this would be a book link rather than an author link.

I've run into problems with foreign authors, too. Those Wikipedia pages sometimes don't take our templates. Until we can get appropriate templates made for foreign authors and books, I am skipping foreign language projects.

If it is a book link, then how can we format the link on Wikipedia to the two LV books that are currently listed for the one poem?msfry wrote: ↑February 22nd, 2021, 9:21 amI think this would be a book link rather than an author link.GraceBuchanan wrote: ↑February 21st, 2021, 5:17 pmVolunteer: GraceBuchanan

Like I said, I am leaving foreign language Wikipedia pages alone for now. They do look and behave different, and we have plenty enough work to keep us busy. Each time we make a link we click a box that says "WATCH THIS PAGE", so I presume if any changes occur we will be notified. And I don't see how it can be considered SPAM for us to enhance the value of Wikipedia to its users. We are partners in the desire to educate, inform and preserve the world's knowledge, all ad free and free of charge.
