Thanks for this thread, guys, super interesting! Where can I subscribe to
these notices ? I have never received an email from archive.org. Also, how

from archive.org before, but the OCR tends to be pretty lousy). Next, how

We want the disambiguation pages on Wikisource - I checked a few of these
and there are a lot of women and "younger sons" in them that we want. Also,
many can be connected to existing "family of ..." pages or name
disambiguation pages - they definitely help enrich our understanding of the
problems

You can always start with the lists per country (if they exist). So for
example I made an article about the first 500 of such a "1000 most
important works of literature" list compiled for the Netherlands here:

Nice! I will wait for the client though, thx. Where will the source images
be stored? Labs or Commons? It would be nice if you could somehow make a
client that builds a djvu file locally with the page image and the OCR text
that you can cleanup before putting it into the djvu file. Now it just

Great news! Are there any plans to harvest the images in these files, or
has that already been done?

Quick question for all of you sorcerers:
How do I link to a book in a non-English wikisource from an English
Wikipedia article?
I can't remember how to do this and don't know where else to look
Thanks,

I have been wondering the same thing for years. When I upload prints

The reason for moving Wikisource content to Commons that I think is
most important is the fact that many original manuscripts have a
one-to-many relationship with other texts in other languages. There is

Hi David and Alex,
I am also starting to think that one project would be a whole lot
simpler, especially given the lack of cross-referencing between
projects, which would be nice to have in the wikisource of many
popular wikipedia languages - especially for translated texts.
