Bringing it from Word to Wiki
Hi Peggy (& John)! here the main challenges I see. Most of it will have to be done with word macros that change word formatting into wiki syntax. Wikis can read html but they also have a simplified wiki syntax.

Best practical way is: use Greta's account to create pages (the software will fix author attributions accordingly). I can, wherever I see these pages think about better problem solutions. Communication will be best handled on this page (I put it on my watchlist, so that I am informed about all questions you raise on this page.

Now the individual topics:

Splitting the text into sections
I think we should try it with the six blocks you have (if I remember the structure correctly). Wikis can normally handle a 40 or 50 page text...

The following page should offer the table of contents Projekt:Sich begnügen, im Geheimen für das Gute zu wirken. Each headline would become a link into the individual page. It might be good to start all the pages we create with "Projekt:", so that we do not mix these pages with document-pages or biographical pages within this wiki.

Formatting
If you go into the editing mode you see how these are done (let me know if you need more formatting - you can always use html-tags to get it):


 * Italics
 * Bold
 * Indent

Links
A link is created with two square brackets (and closed with two such brackets) as in this example (see again the editing mode)


 * Here a sentence with a link to Johann Friedrich Christian Rudorff.

We can also set links to Ordensnamen like Cassiodor - sooner or later they will all lead to the respective biographical pages Hermann is creating.

Your dissertation is friendly here since you already have all the Ordnesnamen in { brackets which we should simply change into [[ brackets.

Just let me know
Just let me know where you see problems - rather here on this page than in e-mails because it is easier to solve these problems here on page...

Ah yes: The Wikipedia help section is applicable in our wiki and my source of wisdom. --Olaf Simons (talk) 11:42, 10 October 2014 (CEST)
