Wikisource
editI am sorry I did not notice that you have been contributing to Spanish Wikipedia. You probably know the English policies better than I know the Spanish policies. I have only created two articles on Spanish Wikipedia, and one was recently deleted. oh no! ;-)
I see that you have excellent contributions in literature topics, and you like translating. I also welcomed you over on English and Spanish Wikisource. If you are curious about Wikisource, but don't know how to help, here are a few examples.
s:es:Índice:Aurora de Chile (Prospecto).djvu has three pages which need to be proofread.(Dominic was working on an English translation) s:es:Índice:Poemas Edgar A. Poe.djvu and s:es:Índice:Rosario de sonetos líricos.djvu have been proofread, but the yellow pages need to be "verified" by another person before the page is considered finished. s:es:Índice:Diccionario Biográfico Americano.djvu needs to be transcribed, but it contains good Spanish sources for Spanish Wikipedia biographies. (statistics)
On English Wikisource you can translate Spanish works into English, and put them into s:Category:Works originally in Spanish. English Wikisource has a featured text each month, and translations of important texts can also be featured, such as s:J'accuse.
We didnt have any pages on s:Wikisource:Argentina. I found s:Himno Nacional Argentino, however it hasnt been translated yet; see Talk:Argentine National Anthem#lyrics?
