Each  is a typesetting matter...

I don't think that introducing the  continuation method
was ever intended to make exact page mirroring in HTML possible.
AFAIK it was developed to avoid forcing user to switch between pages while
verifying the text.

And yes, I agree that this exammple is rather curiosity than a page design
model.

Wikisource could host most of it, if the oral history is recorded from
a native speaker and direct cultural participant.
There was a good talk about this at the Hong Kong Wikimania.

The recording would be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, and then the
transcription can be created on the Multilingual Wikisource, or a more
appropriate Wikisource if one exists for the language, and it is a
valid source because it has appropriate provenance.

Some Wikisource might reject this type of work, especially if the
provenance was not high quality, but if provenance is high quality it
is a valid type of source.

Ah okay. Slightly different situation than I was trying to explain.


That is just butt ugly. I can think of some tricky ways to do it in a
presentation space so it sort of is like that, but all ultimately
pointless for main namespace. I would simply move it forward a page
and add a  about why in the footer of both pages.
Ultimately that is a typesetting matter, not the author's intent, so
why waste time going picture perfect.

Oo, that's very « exotic » (at first I didn't see it).

Easy, solid and reliable but a bit bad solution : just put the footnote 16
entirely on the page 16.

More difficult and probably still a bad solution, using noinclude balise on
page 16 for footnote 16 and onlyinclude balise on page 17 for a duplicated
footnote 16.

See footnotes 15 & 16:

footnote 15 starts on page 16 and continues on 17
footnote 16 is referenced at page 16, so it starts as empty footnote on
page 16 also and continues on 17 (full footnote text there)

If you can suggest another solution, I will be intrigued.

I don't see *two* footnotes start and continue from the one page, I
just see one footnote start on 18 to19, and another start on 19 to 20.
I don't see see two footnotes continue start on 18 or 19 and both
continue to subsequent pages.

English Wikisource has documentation too. See

https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Help:Footnotes_and_endnotes

To note that you can use multiple versions of  if the
reference carries on.  Also to note that you cannot use numbers in the
ref name, the extension doesn't play, so at enWS we would usually do
something like   where it is the initial page and
continue it. I have never seen two footnotes start and continue from
