Should cursive transcriptions be added? If so, where?

Some users on the forums have complained about not being able to (easily) read Chris's cursive handwriting. I transcribed the Amendment timeline here but I didn't insert it in this page because I thought it might make the page way too long/cluttered. I'm not sure that a separate article for each document is necessary (unless analyzing each document is not too spergy for the CWCki). Would a collapsible box on this page be a good way to add the transcriptions? A CWCki Forums user has transcribed one of the more recent leaks. There may be other transcriptions on the forums (I haven't completely caught up yet). --CWCTime (talk) 13:23, 21 June 2014 (UTC)

I think that in many countries cursive writing is not taught at all. I'm an Israeli and I haven't been taught how to read it, and I know of no other compatriot of mine who have been. For that reason, I think that transcriptions are definitely needed, and yeah I think that collapsible boxes for the transcriptions would be good. As for analyzing the Chris's homework... I think that this is something the CWCki should do to. We already note instances in which Chris shows a lack of knowledge regarding subjects that an adult at his age should be knowledgeable about; analyzing the mistakes he made in his homework would be appropriate. - NegaCWC (talk) 14:13, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
Alright, I started adding brief descriptions and collapsible transcriptions. They could use some help from someone better at formatting than me... I couldn't figure out how to use different font colors in the transcriptions, for example. When I tried using formatting like <font color="00ff00">, it kept breaking entire quoteboxes. --CWCTime (talk) 04:43, 22 June 2014 (UTC)


--Speaking of handwriting, I would like to politely point out that Chris didn't write "Dong MacArthur." He wrote Doug; it's just hard to read. --asperhes.
