What I'd really like is for every article on a law case to have an accompanying article containing the opinion text (e.g. at Roe v. Wade/opinion), with the body text full of automatically-generated wikilinks to the cases cited therein. That way, if I'm in the article on "Roe v. Wade", I can 1) transclude individual paragraphs of text (to avoid people from making changes when I want an excerpt in the article) and 2) see "what links here" in the form of other cases.

the parent article for the nation should suffice; that the additional comments to actual voting in the state article should confine itself to events actually occurring in that state. e.g. visit from a candidate; fundraising by a candidate; commercials focused on a special interest group in that state (farmers? Union workers?). Anyway, not a mere repeat of the national article.
371:
Is there a corresponding guideline that suggests not copying material from other Knowledge (XXG) articles? We have a bunch of election articles for 50 states that copy material from the parent article into the state article, much of which is not necessarily germane for that state. It seems to me that

there are thousands of supreme court cases, and almost every one of them is going to have an article which is going to cite the body textr somewhere off-site, even if that means to Wikisource. However, Wikisource will be inferior to a source like Altlaw, which contains its own version of wikilinks.

I disagree with the part about the national anthems. I believe that the only parts of a national anthem that should be displayed on Knowledge (XXG) without question are the ones still commonly recited at public events; i.e., the first verse of the Star Spangled Banner, the standard version of God
87:"Do not include copies of primary sources (specifically: text, maps, artworks and other useful images) in Knowledge (XXG). If it is a large source, consider placing it in Wikisource. Wikibooks Annotated works and Project Gutenberg are other alternatives for pursuing primary source documentation." 39: 129:
can reasonably be quoted in full. It's also misleading, because, with thumbnail software, we can easily include primary source images, and I don't think anyone would want to argue we shouldn't. A better name would be

The following examples of specific repositories have been deleted so presumably the section of the paragraph should be deleted too? Are there any "specific repositories" left in Wikisource?

I suggest that there must be numeral limit to say that this quotation is too lengthy. Please discuss. Otherwise some editors say some quotation as long and some of same length as short.

Save the Queen. Other verses should only be included when the context makes it such that the value of inclusion is greater than the risk of breaking the flow of the article; i.e., in
196: 362:), which can contain translations of the source text into multiple languages (including translations of the source text from its original language into English). 303:, we quote the standard version off to the side, quote the infamous "rebellious Scots to crush" verse in the article, and the official peace version, and 149: 277: 272: 281: 473: 458: 436: 404: 381: 340: 321: 247: 220: 77: 125:
Actually, I'd like a move - the title seems inappropriate: We can and do quote from primary sources, and very short primary sources, e.g.

Rework done. Nothing controversial, I trust. Anyway, one last thing left to do: a quick move to a more accurate title:
