Revision as of 16:01, 4 September 2013
Wythepedia is divided into two main categories: The George Wythe Collection and The George Wythe Encyclopedia.
Contents
The George Wythe Collection
This section of Wythepedia is devoted to the library of George Wythe especially as represented by The George Wythe Collection at the College of William & Mary's Wolf Law Library. A page will be created for each title or set known or suspected to have been owned by Wythe. See Help:Book Page Style for information on formatting the book pages.
The George Wythe Encyclopedia
This section of Wythepedia covers all aspects of Wythe's life and career other than his library. The sections below are those which have been identified at this point. We expect to add more sections as time and imagination allow.
Biographical pages concerning Wythe
Eventually we plan to have a page devoted to every part of Wythe's life. Some of the early pages include Wythe's Death, Wythe's Judicial Career, and Wythe the Teacher. These pages should all link to the main biography page and include references and any links to appropriate Wythepedia pages or outside materials (such as full-text articles, items in the repository, or reference materials available online).
Citations follow The Chicago Manual of Style except citations for legal materials. Legal materials follow The Bluebook.
While we might add full-text pdf files for some shorter materials, we will not be adding full-text for lengthy articles or books. We will be expanding the book/article reviews pages for the biographies of Wythe (see "Further Reading" on the main biography page).
Biographical pages for other people
Biographical pages for the people in Wythe's life should be created
Letters and Papers
We are actively searching for all examples of letters to or from George Wythe (and any other Wythe papers that might be "out there"). The pages for the letters include a transcription of the text and an image of the letter when available. If we find a transcription, we credit the source. See Letters and Papers for the complete list of letters located to date. Pages are named and citations formed using The Chicago Manual of Style.
Wythe's Judicial Decisions
We will include a short summary of all of Wythe's available judicial decisions. Particularly noteworthy cases, such as Commonwealth v. Caton, will receive more in-depth discussion. Citations follow The Chicago Manual of Style except citations for the actual cases. Citations for the cases follow The Bluebook.
