Pensapedia equivalent of Wikisource: new section
The City is looking for a photo of [[Frank Dent Sanders]] for a plaque at the new [[Sanders Beach-Corinne Jones Community Center]]. You can't, by chance, think of anywhere where you have seen a better image than our crummy newsprint photo, can you? <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 11:42, 6 September 2009 (CDT)
:Nope, sorry; what's here is the best I've seen. I'd guess the Historical Society/WFHPI probably has an original somewhere, if anyone does. <span style="font-family:Georgia, serif; color:#cccccc;">&mdash;&nbsp;'''''[[User:Admin|admin]]'''''&nbsp;&bull;&nbsp;'''''[[User_talk:Admin|talk]]'''''&nbsp;</span> 12:20, 6 September 2009 (CDT)
 
== Pensapedia equivalent of Wikisource ==
 
How would you feel about having a Pensapedia equivalent of [http://en.wikisource.org Wikisource]? We could use it to post the full text of Pensacola-related documents, like [[West Florida transfer of sovereignty document, 1821]], or more recently, particularly noteworthy City ordinances/resolutions. If you hadn't noticed, I've been citing a lot of them lately, and it's impossible to directly link to them because the City keeps its digitised records in this horrible, ancient, difficult-to-navigate Fortis system which requires downloading a special plugin. What I'm suggesting is that we could create, for instance, a Source: or Document: namespace and then I could transcribe noteworthy one, like the Jim Crow ordinances, or the street name changing one from 1906, etc.
 
Just an idea... if it doesn't sound like a good one, no biggie. <span style="font-variant:small-caps; vertical-align:5%; font-family: Georgia,serif; color:#cccccc;">—&nbsp;'''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' • '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]'''&nbsp;</span> 18:41, 11 September 2009 (CDT)
