Things about the issue work/edition are simpler for projects like
fr.source, bn.source and other projects with a very high proofread/total
ratio, since there's usually an unique Index page linked with an unique
Commons djvu/pdf page and very often an unique source of that image. Things
are much more confused with "naked" works. I suggest - for simplicity -
that by now any effort should be focused on proofread works/editions
ignoring the case of naked works.

I don't know in detail the work flow into de.source, German language being
a hard obstacle - what's a pity!
