1. The year of publication
2. The source of the text
3. A comma-separated list of prominent contributors (normally only one, but maybe more)
4. Level of progress, one of four values:
   • [[Image:25%.svg]] - Editing is in progress; there is no guarantee that any part of the text is reliable, at all proofread, or properly formatted. The text may not yet be complete.
   • [[Image:50%.svg]] - The text is apparently complete and mostly formatted, but may still contain errors in content and formatting.
   • [[Image:75%.svg]] - The text has been proofread and corrected by one user, who has checked the text with a reference edition. The text is properly formatted and supplied with information about the source. The text is reasonably reliable.
   • [[Image:100%.svg]] - The text has been proofread by several users, who have all checked the text with a reference edition. This text is very reliable.
5. Any notes about the text
6. Any users who have proofread or corrected the text.

Example

Information about this edition
Edition:	{{{edition}}}
Source:	{{{source}}}
Contributor(s):	{{{contributors}}}
Level of progress:	{{{progress}}}
Notes:	{{{notes}}}
Proofreaders:	{{{proofreaders}}}

The following template is used to provide information about the source of the transcript. See the {{textinfo}} documentation for guidelines.

{{textinfo
| edition      = 
| source       = 
| contributors = 
| progress     = 
| notes        = 
| proofreaders = 
}}

Template:footnote-label and Template:footnote-return

Template links

{{footnote-label}} and {{footnote-return}}

Placement

Within body text at point of choosing and towards the end of the text.

Parameters

One parameter only, the name of the footnote reference.

Note that in order for the footnote-return to work, the label given must not include spaces.

The two templates work together, footnote-label links automatically to an identically named section heading; footnote-return links to the named footnote. This allows the reader to jump to the footnote and back again to resume reading the text where they left off.

Example

Source text	Output
Here is some text{{footnote-label|A-1}} with a foonote.	Here is some text[A-1] with a foonote.
===A-1=== Place your footnote here. {{footnote-return|A-1}}	A-1 Place your footnote here. (return to text)
