Dear all, the discussion of automated import of scholarly articles is moving forwards at https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Scriptorium#Automated_import_of_openly_licensed_scholarly_articles but more participation would probably not hurt.
As for the import of the bilingual book on Spider taxonomy, there were no reactions on the Swedish and Latin Wikisources: https://sv.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:M%C3%B6tesplatsen#Svenska_spindlar https://la.wikisource.org/wiki/Vicifons:Scriptorium#Aranei_Svecici . I thus gave it a try at https://la.wikisource.org/wiki/Liber:Clerck_1757_Svenska_Spindlar_-_Aranei_Svecici.pdf but am actually not sure it's a good idea to handle the two languages separately, so I also put up https://wikisource.org/wiki/Index:Clerck_1757_Svenska_Spindlar_-_Aranei_Svecici.pdf , and now I am stuck at how to get an OCR layer imported. Can anyone help with that?
