Please use the following page layout guidelines for Vanisource pages when translating from your language

1) Paragraphs need to have one empty blank line between them

2) When Śrīla Prabhupāda quotes from a verse, please add a link to the original verse - see examples below. Please note that the verse links are case sensitive:

(BG 7.5) - see below for the coding to use

([[BG 7.5]])

(SB 3.10.20) - see below for the coding to use

([[SB 3.10.20]])

(CC Adi 2.10) - see below for the coding to use - Adi, Madhya or Antya

([[CC Adi 2.10]])

If you need to identify a verse or lines from a verse when transcribing audio files, you can use the search page at vedabase.com

3) Full verses should be layed out like below. Please note the use of the colons : which indent the verses. Also note the blank line between the first and second verse:

athābhipretam anvīkṣya

brahmaṇo madhusūdanaḥ

viṣaṇṇa-cetasaṁ tena

kalpa-vyatikarāmbhasā

loka-saṁsthāna-vijñāna

ātmanaḥ parikhidyataḥ

tam āhāgādhayā vācā

kaśmalaṁ śamayann iva

(SB 3.9.27-28)

:athābhipretam anvīkṣya
:brahmaṇo madhusūdanaḥ
:viṣaṇṇa-cetasaṁ tena
:kalpa-vyatikarāmbhasā

:loka-saṁsthāna-vijñāna
:ātmanaḥ parikhidyataḥ
:tam āhāgādhayā vācā
:kaśmalaṁ śamayann iva
:([[SB 3.9.27-28]])

4) Please use diacritics for Sanskrit words.

This list of common Sanskrit diacritics is found at the bottom of each page when editing.

Diacritics: Ā Ī Ū Ṛ Ṣ Ñ Ṭ Ḍ Ṇ Ś ā ī ū ṛ ṅ ṣ ñ ṭ ḍ ṇ ś ṁ ḥ

5) For page titles under the video link place this coding directly after the title <br />- Prabhupāda and then the number

example: Krishna is God<br />- Prabhupāda 1081
