How to link to Project Gutenberg
This is explained at http://www.gutenberg.org/howto-link

Example of a good way to link/cite from [Project Gutenberg]]:
 * For an author, e.g:
 * Works by Mark Twain from Project Gutenberg
 * Typed as *Works by Mark Twain from Project Gutenberg.
 * For a book, e.g:
 * Free e-Text of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain from Project Gutenberg
 * Typed as Free e-Text of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain from Project Gutenberg.

How to link to Bible Gateway
This is explained at http://www.biblegateway.com/usage/

Using the biblegateway template
I have encapsulated linking to Bible Gateway in a Wikipedia template: see Template:biblegateway.

Note &mdash; the template has two pipes "|" in it. This allows the clean substitutions of book names with a space, e.g. 1 John.

Note &mdash; the template does not work for the Song of Solomon unless you refer to it as SongOfSolomon:.
