[Wikisource-l] Indic language Wikisource Skill Share

[Jayanta Nath]

Hi Indian Wikisource Community,

As COVID-19 has forced the Wikimedia communities to stay at home and like
many other affiliates, CIS-A2K has decided to suspend all offline
activities till 15th September 2020 (or till further notice).I present to
you for an online training session for future coming months

1. Wikisource Skill Share,[1] a capacity-building initiative, where Indic
Wikisource contributors, both newcomers and experienced, can share
knowledge and skills with each other and clear confusions. Most of the
time, it will be done online on 1:1 basis, so it is just the right time to
participate there if you have not planned to do it or done it already.
Let's learn Wikisource together! I would like to invite experienced Indic
Wikisource contributors and sign your name at Willing to respond section
[2]. Newcomer or any  Indic Wikisource contributors are welcome to join the
session with your queries and doubts.

2. Intensive Personalized Training (or IPT),[3] this also a
 capacity-building initiative, where Indic Wikisource contributors,
especially newcomers could come with his/her queries and doubts. I, myself
will share my knowledge and skills with each contributor and clear
confusions. It will be done online on a 1:1 basis, so it is just the right
time to participate there if you have not planned to do so.

3. Online Proofread-edithon for all 12 Indic Wikisource language projects.
We are planning for an indic level online proofreadthon from 1 May 2020 to
10 May 2020. The book of the subject will be the classical literature of
your languages. We’ll share details about this in a separate email in a
couple of days.

   specific community ( Offline and Online both)
   - Organize edit-thon for Wikisource  ( Offline and Online both)
   - Workshop planning for other community for Oriya Malayalam, Tamil and

[Wikisource-l] Indic Wikisource IRC 2018

[Jayanta Nath]

 Dear All,

Firstly I would like to thank you for the continuous support and
contribution to the Wikimedia movement.

You are aware that after implemented Google OCR into Indic Wikisource, they
grew rapidly, reaching a total of 50,000+ pages proofreaded in 11 Indic
Wikisource languages. For updated page/ digitized content you go here
<https://wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Indic_Wikisource_Stats>[2]

But Indic community members have not got any chance to meet each other and
share best practices of their community. Keeping this in mind we are
planning to have an IRC[1] on 9th September 2018 (@8:00 PM) for the Indic
Wikisource community. Please suggest more Agenda for the IRC in Google Doc

Re: [Wikisource-l] edit-a-thon for wikisource

[Jayanta Nath]

Hi Balaji,

Just past year we have completed our Bengali 10th Years Anniversary
Proofreading Contest.

https://bn.wikisource.org/wiki/WSCONTEST10, you can follow our Rule.

The big problem is we have no tool to count the Proofreading. As like
wikipedia have fountain https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Fountain ,
https://tools.wmflabs.org/fountain/editathons/, so you have to do it
manually.

I have knocked some many person to developed tool ,  but its not developed.

Regards,
Jayanta Nath

Re: [Wikisource-l] Can any local language Wikisource release their few books in CC BY-NC-ND 3.0

[Jayanta Nath]

I have met few Bengali Writer and family member of writer who had died.  .

Few of them ready to give us for permission to us.  But they are not to
agree to release it  Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License
<https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/>;  https://
creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/

Their main concern about commercial use of their text, if derivative in
translation, it will be not any issue of them. They have no issue for
published at Wikisource.  So what should be the licence and how we
published in Bengali Wikisource?

But they are ready to release all their book at
Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs
3.0 Unported (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0). https://creativecommons.org/

[Wikisource-l] Fwd: [Wikimedia-l] TPP - copyright

[Jayanta Nath]

-- Forwarded message --
From: *Gnangarra* 
Date: Friday 6 November 2015
Subject: [Wikimedia-l] TPP - copyright
To: Wikimedia Mailing List , "
affilia...@lists.wikimedia.org" , Wikimedia
Commons Discussion List 


We have a new problem to face in the coming months assuming countries
ratify the Trans Pacific Partnership
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Pacific_Partnership

The text of the agreement has been released in the last 24 hours, early
commentary is indicating that copyright changes will occur restoring
copyright to some works that are currently PD.
http://boingboing.net/2015/11/06/how-tpp-will-clobber-canadas.html

According reports this will affect media sourced in Canada where copyright
will be extended from 50-70 years meaning that image sin this period may
need to be deleted both on commons and on en:wp, Australian sourced images
face a similar issue as will other countries.

Rather than a piece meal commons copyright battle, and a duplicate one on
en:wp being lead by  unqualified wikilawyers resulting in project
discrepancies. I'm calling on the community to take  more holistic approach
and request that the WMF ask for its legal eagles to give an edict we can
take or communities to explain what will happen in each jurisdiction as the
TPP is ratified.

This will also give us guidance as to how Affiliates can approach and
support activities locally  to ensure material that is already freely
available remains so.

Google's OCR which apparently is most accurate OCR
we have seen so far, works really good for all the major South Asian
scripts:

nition-software-now-works-with-all-south-asian-languages
Here are test cases of many Indian scripts: https://goo.gl/3X75iR.
Except Gurmukhi most scripts are working really good.

This could be really useful for Indian language Wikimedians and will
come handy for digitization of printed and scanned text.  Here is an
animated tutorial for Wikimedians to use this tool for
Wikisource/Wikipedia:

 Let me mention of yet another possible model that we are almost about to
 try in ml:

 Apart from the already tried and tremendously successful models of
 school-wise student model and general community competition (for prizes in
 kind or just for credential certificates), we are now pondering upon a new
 idea:

 Use secondary social network collaboration.

 As an example, if you have formed (or if you could grow from now,) a very
 vibrant Wikimedia or other language-focused community network in Facebook,
 you can open up an appropriately scaled competition model  within that.
 Many people are now seeking independent localization tools and input
 methods just to use Facebook.

 (And BTW, thanks to Facebook, which I always detested, for making a great
 invisible revolution among mainstream local community members, that most
 other models are still struggling to achieve!)

 In Malayalam, now we have several such large communities each one
 specializing in their own arenas (eg. Butterflies, Plants, Birds, Grammar,
 Films and Film Songs etc. etc.). They all share the idea that most of such
 shared knowledge and digital text and images shall ultimately end up in WM
 pools.

 So, imagine a world where,
 A Tamil community in Facebook takes up this project. (May or may not be
 with an organized competition spirit). Each member picks up a few pages one
 at a time, and post it back to Facebook. A small team collects this and
 pipes to Wikisource. Eventually, the volume gets completely in.

 Just imagine... and it shall happen!

 PS. Why in FB and then why not directly in Wikisourse?
 You know why! The interface makes a big difference. Let's admit that!

 Encylopedia released under Creative Commons
 To: Wikimedia India Community list wikimediaindi...@lists.wikimedia.org


 Hi,

 Tamil Development Board (an autonomous institution under Government of
 Tamilnadu) releases its Encyclopedia (10 volumes, 7407 pages) and
 Children's Encyclopedia (10 volumes, 969 pages) under Creative Commons
 license. Tamil Wikipedians lead by Prof. C. R. Selvakumar and Prof. P.
 R. Nakkeeran, (Director, Tamil Virtual Academy) spearheaded this
 initiative coinciding with Tamil Wikipedia's 10 years celebrations.

 An official confirmation (in Tamil) can be seen at


 https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/46/Letter_from_Tamil_Development_Board_donating_20_volumes_of_encyclopedia_in_Tamil_under_Creative_Commons_license.jpeg

 Scanned copies of these works are already available at

 http://tamilvu.org/library/kulandaikal/lku00/html/lku00ind.htm

 At Tamil Wikipedia, we are discussing how we can get this content
 typed and transferred to WikiSource. Doing so can be a good model to
 encourage more such works to be released in public domain.

 Following are two options I can think of:

 1. Volunteers type all the content. Besides taking years to complete,
 this won't do justice for the value of time of volunteers who can do
 more valuable work than typing mechanically.

 A program like IT@School present in Kerala or a contest can encourage
 more people to join this effort but not all communities can't emulate
 this model successfully.

 2. Request WMF to give a grant to the owner of the content and let
 them hand over the typed content to Wikisource volunteers who will
 upload and wikify the content.

 This will ensure maintaining the spirit of volunteerism and yet
 getting the work done in a professional and time bound manner.

 Numerous works in Wikisource are such ready made content uploaded
 already in the web through other projects like Project Gutenberg.

 If providing grants to non-Wikimedia organizations is an issue, a
 grant towards this can be given to community / chapter who will then
 outsource the typing work.

 I welcome community's input on any other model for this as India has
 vast amount of literature and works like this are waiting to be
 transfered to Wikisource. This is one area where we can add lot of
 content to Wiki projects at once.

 Ravi

 revitalize their wikisource (Community building) or learn how to start
 projects (Outreach). It could also be someone from an external organization

 to do things and it has to yield results, since travels are expensive. Are
 there suggestions about who should we try to bring?

Re: [Wikisource-l] Multiple page move with prefix book title

[Jayanta Nath]

Thank you Manoj  Billinghurst for your valued suggestion.  I have been
working about 1 year in Bengali Wikisource very deeply with the
proofreading work. Previously few user worked only on PD text importing
from various site  with out using proofreading felicity although that was
implemented in 2009. So now in bnws, there are about 6100 text without
proofread, and as per stats *0.38%* [1] proofread for my present work.

A) About Gitangali

I know there are three version in  Bengali, English Version , Bengali
Transliteration Version [3] but we have separate Bengali works [2] which
is proofreading now from scan book published in 1913 found in DLI. [4]

So I am not confident with English version at Bengali Wikisource, because
it is for Bengali version.So my proposal for delete this [3], as we have
already  English work at ENWS . [5]. Our community strength  is very low at
bnws. So I am asking here for best practice.

B) Multiple page move with prefix book title

My present work collaboration at BNWS is proofreading all text content
which already present (PagesWithoutScans)[6]  with scan book.[7].
And reorganized/ rearrange  all page as per WS MOS. Thats why we need some
help to Multiple page move with prefix book title as I describe above.

  bulk pages we can use pywikipedia scripts for that. i don't have much

 I am glad to note that you have taken a look at Abhishek's existing
 work. Have you been able to reach out to him and discuss in some level
 of detail the current state of the work? The voting piece is somewhat
 based on the concept that a larger number of users of the system can
 help train the system for higher degree of accuracy.

 ankur.org.in will be putting in an application as a mentoring
 organization. However, the acceptance in GSoC2014 is always subject to
 - [1] good set of project ideas; [2] reasonable success from previous
 year etc. So, there is a period of waiting before one gets to know
 about being selected as a mentoring organization and, thereafter
 begins the process of selecting strong applications from students.

 I would recommend that you spend this time catching up with Abhishek
 and also Jayanta in order to be able to understand a real-life
 utilization of your project (should ankur.org.in be selected and, you
 are accepted as a student)

 Hi guys,

 the IEG me and David did last year.

 This is not to brag: we couldn't do it without the Wikisource community

 This is a small piece of evidence that when we all work organized (say,

 remind you that we have a Wikisource Community User Group, which can be of

 And I really hope to see many of you wikisourcerors in London this summer:

  Dear Vishnu,
 
  this is in continuation to our telecon regarding i am not able to get
 my name registered in Wikimedia India list hence writing this email to you.
 
  Gujarati Wikisource has achieved yet another milestone on its second
 birthday (29.03.2014) completed uploading full 50 books which has come in
 public domain.
 
  The collection of these 50 books includes well known Gujarati literary
 creations in the form of Autobiography, Novels, Plays, Collection of Poems,
 Essays, Moral Stories etc. This includes works of prominent writers such as
 Mahatma Gandhi, Zaverchand Meghani, Kavi Nhanalal, Surasinhji Gohil,
 Educationist Gijubhai Badheka, Kavi Dalapatram, Ramanlal Nilkanth etc.
 
  This feat was achieved in 2 years time.
 
  As OCR is not available, volunteers of Gujarati wiki Community have
 typed this books. The community proceeds in a planned manner. A book is
 selected and its announcement is made at common platform on source.
 Volunteer interested joins the project. Chapters are distributed among the
 particants and proof reading is done. Once completed, another book is
 undertaken.
 
  Kindly inform this on Indian Community List
 
  Regards
 
  Sushant

 I think it may be relevant to share the context of this too . This may be
 helpful and useful for other wikisource communities. I am part of the
 Organizing Team and our organization , Swathanthra Malayalam Computing is
 one of the partners for this

 1. Unlike Latin based languages , Most of the Indian languages does not
 have a functional OCR solution. So for us  the digitalising means typing
 the pages and proofreading them .
 2. Even though there are many state run institutions and libraries are
 engaged in scanning books for their digitization , The public domain works
 are not available in most cases . Initiatives like GLAM  s not much suited
 for small librarys and state institutions.
 3. In short the absence / Way to thank library for preserving books  till
 they release under public domain  with proper media attention becomes a
 difficult task . This program experimenting a way to thank Govt institution
 named Keral Sahithya academi  via media attention for preserving and
 donating the public domain copies to many books to wikisource .
 4.Wikisource can be used as a way of training new users to familiarize
 with mediawiki and wikisyntax . A Typing+proofreading competition with
 declared prizes anyway attracts more users and attention . within first 5
 days 80+ new contributors and 798 pages added to Malayalam wikisource
 5. We Succeeded in getting IT@School program of Govt of Kerala as an
 official partner and created a seperate competition for schools . So
 Students under the guidance of teachers can involve in  Malayalam
 wikisource and get exposure for wikimedia projects
  6. This helps in building more references for wikipedia articles . This
 is an important concern for many languages without much digital archives

 Thanks to Vishnu , Director of CIS-A2K for initially coming up with an
 idea of running a proofreading contest in malayalam wikipedia by offering
 some Devices . This helped us to start exploring the possibilities and
 expanding the program with more partners .

 In last October Malayalam wikisource community released a 2.0 version of
 its offline CD  . This is the next major endeavour

Hi Aubrey

Unfortunately I , myself on board in Wikimedia Chapter ( Executive
committee Member!). Personally I am very much attached with Wikimedia
movement in India. Actually that's not a big deal.

I  follow the below workflow...

1) Download books from Digital Library of India ( single page single tif
file).

2) Upload as PDF  (You can put them in a zipped file and upload everything
on Internet Archive with the namefile FILENAME_images.zip. Then the
software will do everything by itself.  This is  good for me.)  Let's try
next time. But when I upload as PDF , I cannot find any DJVU file.

3)Transfer  file  in commons.
https://toolserver.org/~tpt/iaUploadBot/step1.php this utility  is only for
upload DJVU file. ( If  I upload FILENAME_images.zip at archive.org, Are
they converted as DJVU?)

 Hi Jayanta,
 I now understand you have a deeper problem than I thought.

 My advice would be to seek for a collaboration with the Digital Library of
 India, or with Wikimedia India (http://wiki.wikimedia.in/Main_Page)
 and ask them to help you in transferring those file.

 I still think the better workflow is to

 1. upload the files in Internet Archive. If you have tiff files, this is
 perfect.
 You can put them in a zipped file and upload everything on Internet
 Archive with the namefile FILENAME_images.zip. Then the software will do
 everything by itself.
 This is very good as Internet Archive is great at converting files, doing
 OCR and stuff like that. You can find the instructions here too:
 https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Help:DjVu_files#The_Internet_Archive

 2. when everything is ready (all the files are created), go with
 https://toolserver.org/~tpt/iaUploadBot/step1.php :
 you put the id inside, and it will upload the file on Commons.

 3. you're set: you go on Wikisource and create the Index.

 Hi all.
 In Italian wikisource we are experiencing huge issues in namespace page:
 I enter in Edit mode, and I don't see the Edit form nor the scan.
 i just see the editoolbar, with the Save button, the SAL radiobuttons
  and everything.
 I have disabled all my Gadgets in Preferences.
 I don't have the same problem editing en.source.

 Do you experience similar problems?

Many Many thanks its help me lots.

Our GLAM project  initiated , but we have big  Red-tape in our Govt
Departments!

Just I have uploaded in Archive.org

 Well, you could contact as Wikimedia India the DLI, and try to set up a
 partnership.


 I  follow the below workflow...

 1) Download books from Digital Library of India ( single page single tif
 file).

 Maybe you can use a script to download all the TIFF files of a book. Put
 them in a single folder, sorted. Zip that folder as I said
 (FILENAME_images.zip). The IA software will do all the rest: it will make
 you a PDF, a DJVU, everything by itself. the trick is giving him all the
 single images in a zip folder with that name.


 2) Upload as PDF  (You can put them in a zipped file and upload
 everything on Internet Archive with the namefile FILENAME_images.zip.
 Then the software will do everything by itself.  This is  good for me.)  
 Let's
 try next time. But when I upload as PDF , I cannot find any DJVU file.

 3)Transfer  file  in commons.
 https://toolserver.org/~tpt/iaUploadBot/step1.php this utility  is only
 for upload DJVU file. ( If  I upload FILENAME_images.zip at archive.org,
 Are they converted as DJVU?)




 Then, as IA has finished, you take the id (not of the djvu, but of the
 book itself on IA: for example, here (
 https://archive.org/details/fioannisnauarrog00nava) the id is 
 fioannisnauarrog00navahttps://archive.org/details/fioannisnauarrog00nava
 .
 Then everything is ok.

 Hi Jayanta,
 I now understand you have a deeper problem than I thought.

 My advice would be to seek for a collaboration with the Digital Library
 of India, or with Wikimedia India (http://wiki.wikimedia.in/Main_Page)
 and ask them to help you in transferring those file.

 I still think the better workflow is to

 1. upload the files in Internet Archive. If you have tiff files, this is
 perfect.
 You can put them in a zipped file and upload everything on Internet
 Archive with the namefile FILENAME_images.zip. Then the software will do
 everything by itself.
 This is very good as Internet Archive is great at converting files,
 doing OCR and stuff like that. You can find the instructions here too:
 https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Help:DjVu_files#The_Internet_Archive

 2. when everything is ready (all the files are created), go with
 https://toolserver.org/~tpt/iaUploadBot/step1.php :
 you put the id inside, and it will upload the file on Commons.

 3. you're set: you go on Wikisource and create the Index.

 Hi Zanni,

 On Indian context  of Indian pint of view, Books are not readily
 available in Archive.org or google book. We have a great resource at 
 Digital
 Library of India] ( All Indic language books available). As like others
 India Govt website , this site same issue about poor Navigations, Online
 reading, downloading, Server error/down etc. They have just dump as tif
 file. So we can't do better proofread as like EN.WS.  I know this not
 the right place to state, can any developers works for us, to upload books
 from Digital Library of India to commons or Wikimedia WS project domain?

 I am using  https://toolserver.org/~tpt/iaUploadBot/step1.php and
 https://tools.wmflabs.org/url2commons/ both. Fist one is only for DJVU
 file. Some of our Indic language books not available in DJVU file in
 Archive.org.

Oh! In our BN.WS not ready to test this extension due to lack of
volunteer.

 Hi Jayanta,
 afaik, there are not.
 I'm not sure which is the roadmap for new extension to be tested,
 we can maybe wait for Tpt to answer about this.
 I'm not sure if it is ready yet.

 Of course, if your Wikisource is available to try it, we can ask that.
 I will asl the Italian Community if we want that too.

Re: [Wikisource-l] Crop images tool

[Jayanta Nath]

Great tool! Thank you!


On Wed, Nov 27, 2013 at 9:58 PM, Alex Brollo alex.bro...@gmail.com wrote:

 Thanks for appreciation; I've to underline that it's only a development of
 a brilliant  idea of George Orwell III (:en:s:Template:Freedimg).

 I think that the tool should be used to show a preview of final image,
 since it's a little bit band-expensive (since a unusefully large image is
 upload to show a piece of it), nevertheless it's so user-rewarding that I
 think that this is a minor fault.

 About ePub bug: I presume that's mainly a css issue into ePub, and that id
 could be solved finding the right css to export; but I could not test this
 hypothesis as it deserve.

 I hope to extend the tool to make it run everywhere - simply adding what
 needed to tell him explicitely the basename of File/Index/Page to upload.

 2013/11/27 David Cuenca dacu...@gmail.com

 Aubrey, Alex,

 Thank you very much for creating this tool and for sharing it. It is
 really amazing.
 On ca-ws we only found one bug: when exporting the document into ePub or
 pdf (both with the EpubExporter and the Book Tool), the coordinates are not
 exported rightly and the cropping has an offset. It might be an
 incompatibility issue with the ePub exporter or something that we have not
 configured right. Example:
 https://ca.wikisource.org/wiki/Test
 http://wsexport.wmflabs.org/tool/book.php?lang=caformat=epubpage=Test

 Aleator said that it could be useful for Wikipedia, and I cannot agree
 more. Sometimes we spend a lot of time cropping and uploading, when it can
 be done much faster with this.

 Dear all,
 user Alex Brollo has developed a very interesting tool which I think
 many of you will find very useful.
 (afaiu he developed this from a previous tool, but he can explain it
 better)

 To test it, go on your oldwikisource account,
 and in User:YOU/vector.js copy this:

 importScript(User:Alex_brollo/cornersDependencies.js);
 importScript(User:Alex brollo/corners.js);
 importStylesheet(User:Alex brollo/common.css);

 The tool will appear under Tools, and it's called Ritaglio immagini
 (crop images).
 It opens a window which allows you to select and crop an image directy
 on the page.
 It is extremely useful to use illustration directly on the page.
 It is usable both in View and Edit mode.

 In the Italian Wikisource we have made it a Gadget and button, so it's
 active for everyone.
