• Delete Move - A 19th century translation of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle doesnt make an article. We dont have separate Wikipedia articles for each modern translation of an old text. Transwiki the bottom portion to Wikisource. Stbalbach 05:44, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Move to Wikisource. But why delete the top portion? It seems to do no more than explain what this text is, but might be useful. Crypticfirefly 06:22, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• There are many (better) translations of the ASC. This just happens to be in the public ___domain because its pre-1920s. It's non-notable otherwise. --Stbalbach 06:41, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Yes, but if moved to Wikisource, the explanation of which translation this is would be useful for that very reason. That's what I thought you meant by the "top portion." Crypticfirefly 06:57, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Ok just some confusion on what I was trying to say, we're saying the same thing. --Stbalbach 15:05, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Move to wikisource. We already have Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. Banana04131 04:32, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment This text cannot be put on wikisource as the Ingram translation because it it clearly states it is a combination of two translations. Since they are both PD it is alright as long the person who combined them released their work under GDFL. I am assuming that person is a WP editor but that needs to be verified before moving to Wikisource.--Birgitte§β ʈ Talk 18:11, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
