What is Wikisource? A documentary report all about Wikisource for the blind and visually impaired or for homework/assignment. Wikisource is an online digital library of free content textual sources on a wiki, operated by the Wikimedia Foundation. Its aims are to host all forms of free text, in many languages, and translations. Originally conceived as an archive to store useful or important historical texts (its first text was the [//fr.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Déclaration_universelle_des_Droits_de_l’Homme&oldid;=1338 Déclaration universelle des Droits de l'Homme]), it has expanded to become a general-content library. The project officially began in November 24, 2003 under the name Project Sourceberg. The name Wikisource was adopted later that year and it received its own domain name seven months later. The project has come under criticism for lack of reliability but it is also cited by organisations such as the National Archives and Records Administration.
