Micru,

As a question re uploaded works to Commons. Are we labelling these in
some way as needing to have Index: pages at the WSes, and by language
of work? If not, then it would seem that we may need to do some
curatorial work to
can we identify .djvu files at Commons that are not linked to indices.
Thinking about how we can make things easier for ourselves.

Regards, Billinghurst
