Comrade:ComradeEd/Library notes

I wish to make an onboarding page, with some of the info in the below "bookmarks" condensed, adding my own knowledge, and laying it out in an easier to figure out way. We'll see how well it works out.

Start by reading Library editor onboarding, it explains your role. You'll come across a link to the user guide, I will condense it and add my own knowledge here, so you can skip it for now.

The easiest way to create a new page for Library works (or anything really), is to search for Library:NAME (changing NAME to the name of the work of course, ), and clicking on the red link just beneath the search box. This will take you to an empty page with that name. Though the page will not actually exist until you have typed something and saved.
Once you have a new page, start by adding the Library_work template: {{Library work|title = TITLE|author = AUTHOR|type = book|source = SOURCE}} (These are the bare minimum, see Template:Library_work for other options)

At the bottom of the page, you can add categories. Here are some you might want to use while working on the book:
For empty library pages (you might use this if all you added was the Library_work template), add Category:Empty library pages
For works that are not done, add Category:Incomplete library works.
These are helpful so other editors can find and finish these works.

Once fully imported, if you added the above categories, remove them, then tag it with categories so it can be found. Check ProleWiki:Library to find categories. For example, for Library:This_Soviet_World, the categories are Library works by Anna Louise Strong and Library works about the Soviet Union. In the case of Library:Russian Justice I didn't add Library works by Mary Stevenson Callcott as she doesn't have any other works, and is a relatively small author.
