This sounds feasible, yes. If I understand correctly, you want one item for each work (or work expression?), and one for each edition of that work. The editions would link back to the work with a is-edition-of property (or the other way around: the work item would have an "editions" statement for each edition; I prefer the former in principle, but must advise you to go with the latter initially - that way it will work without queries).
On wikisource, there would be a page about the work, which the work-item would have a sitelink to. On that wiki page, you would use lua to list all the editions. Each edition-item may in turn have a sitelink to a wikisource page about that edition (right?) and you want to use these to automatically generate a navigation bar. Yes, that should work with what we have available in Lua already. -- daniel Am 04.11.2013 16:59, schrieb David Cuenca: > Actually a query or Lua would be much better solution for Wikisource instead > of > sitelinks (well, author pages can have sitelinks that is no problem). > > According to the data model that we have been defining for Wikisource [1] > there > should be a top-level item (work item) representing all the editions that a > text > has, then there should be sub-items for each edition (example of a book with > several translations [2]).
