Hey Peter, thank you for the incitive to go on.

Actually, I didn't watched the license before, but it's CC-by-sa-4.0, so as it is, I couldn't copy/paste it into a Wikimedia wiki, as most of them are CC-by-3.0, and the other licenses used on some wiki are even less possibly compatible. I have little doubt Ananth and Bodhisattwa will grant us persmission to also publish the document under the CC-by-sa-3.0, but we still need their consent.

More importantly, my implicit questioning was "were could I find the original working document of from which this PDF was generated from?".  Sure we can always make copy/paste from the PDF, but having the working document is often far more useful as a base to wikify.

Thank you again to Ananth and Bodhisattwa for the document, I hope we will be able to make a wiki version together, and thank you Peter for pointing the license issue and the lake of explicit demand for the working document.

Cheers

It is CC-by-sa. Of course you can.
Cheers,

Great, thank you.

Could we also launch a Wiki version that would allow localizations, for
example on Meta or Wikibooks?

Cheers

Dear All,

We all know that Wikisource is one of the trending Wikimedia projects. We
are getting many new editors and new books to Indic language Wikisource's.
At the same time, we even noticed that there are many problems faced by the
new editors and a few of the existing editors.  To help all of the editors
we have created a Handbook titled as *Wikisource Handbook for Indic
communities
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikisource_Handbook_for_Indian_Communities.pdf>.
*Which is now available[1] to everyone to make the best use of it. I
request everyone to share this with all those who are in need of support in
editing Wikisource.


Authors of the book: Bodhisattwa Mandal and Ananth Subray P V.
