Missing Frontmatter #2

Closed michael-77 closed 5 years ago

michael-77 commented 5 years ago

The original page scans include a dedication which should be included in a dedication.xhtml file.

It reads:

To Leslie Havergal Bradshaw

The section https://standardebooks.org/contribute/semantics#epigraphs with reference to epigraph changed to dedication can be used to guide the production of that file and an example of a complete one is at https://github.com/standardebooks/bram-stoker_dracula/blob/master/src/epub/text/dedication.xhtml

There is also a preface (by PG Wodehouse) which is in earlier editions and should be included in a preface.xhtml file. It would contain:

<p>Mike and Psmith first appeared in a book called <i epub:type="se:name.publication.book">Mike</i>. This story opens about a month after they have left school.</p>
<footer>
    <p class="signature"><abbr class="name">P. G.</abbr> Wodehouse</p>
</footer>

as the main content there.

<meta property="role" refines="#author" scheme="marc:relators">wpr</meta> will need to be added as an extra line in content.opf to identify Wodehouse as author of the preface as well as the main work (or lint will complain).

A halftitle.xhtml needs to be included when frontmatter exists. See https://github.com/standardebooks/john-meade-falkner_moonfleet/blob/master/src/epub/text/halftitle.xhtml for an example of what that looks like.

You'll then need to regenerate the spine and manifest in content.opf to take into account the extra files.

I added the missing frontmatter, and updated content.opf, in the latest commit dd11a9f72ccccaa4e0211b852e88fa8508146923.

The files haven't made it to github. Need to add:

The references in the documents seem ok but lint won't run smoothly without those files and the build step will fail. They won't show up locally as you'll have the files on your machine!

🤦‍♂️ Added these files in c3311eebfa4aaaeabe708d6d3f8f0409ce596428
