When I posted a warning about a faulty scan of a page into Google books, the
mistake has been fixed in a very brief time; so feedbacks seem considered
carefully.

My opinion is that wikisource should open something like "institutional
channels" with any website sharing our "sources", and inform them as soon as
possible of current proofreading works concerning their work (thanking too
them for sharing!). On the contrary, I'm alwais a little embarrassed, when I
delete Google prefaces, just before uploading djvu files into Commons. :-(
