Dear all,I understand there is a hard limit of 800 pages for the books, and it seems that the collection extension stops after 500 even if one tries to add a bigger category. I have a couple of questions:
- Is any functionality for multi-volume books planned (e.g. If pages are more than 800, based on an algorithm/user choice for cost optimisation and aesthetic appeal the site could suggest splitting the book in 2, 3. etc.)? Also, a little usability note here: on the website you can select your previous collections and delete them, but once you select a collection that is too big, you just get an error (for the book being too long) without the possibility to clear the collection: an option to clear all uploaded books would come in handy. - Is this 500 wiki article limit a hard limit (there cannot possibly be books/pdf's that contain more than 500 articles) or just one set to avoid abuse of the system? In the latter case, what are the possible ways to circumvent it for legitimate users? Again, a usability note: if you add a category that has more than 500 articles, there is no warning issued that some articles were skipped because they didn't fit. Thanks.
