A note[edit]

I see that you have brought in an OCR text. One of the ways we have been working more recently is to actually utilise DjVu files and Side by side proofreading like this work, Index:Frederic Shoberl - Persia.djvu. We fix up the transcription from the text and transclude it to the main namespace. If that is of interest then please either bring a note to Scriptorium or drop me a note. — billinghurst sDrewth 05:54, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For your information the scan Page:The passing of Korea.djvu/10 is a tissue paper page inserted between (shiny) pages so that they did not adhere. As you can see the subsequent page is visible. You did the right thing to mark as "without text" and assuredly you will see more. With image pages, you can mark them with {{use page image}} or {{page contains image}} and highlight them as PROBLEMATIC, and that makes them easy to identify later. — billinghurst sDrewth 02:27, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies if I was telling you "how to suck eggs" earlier. :-/ — billinghurst sDrewth 12:40, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I'm not a native speaker of English. I don't know what "how to suck eggs" means. Anyway am I working right, OK? --Ryuch (talk) 12:43, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
(/me laughs at himself) Now I have fallen for speaking in idiom. w:Teaching grandmother to suck eggs You're doing fine. — billinghurst sDrewth 13:03, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

poem quotes[edit]

This is what I do, see the history Page:The passing of Korea.djvu/417. The lines are kind of centered, but they align so I increased the 'gap'. Cygnis insignis (talk) 06:31, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, good job! --Ryuch (talk) 07:29, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, a good effort by you. Looks like an interesting work. Cygnis insignis (talk) 08:41, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Page:The passing of Korea.djvu/586[edit]

Hi,

I deleted this per your request—generally speaking, you have the right to have any page you recently created deleted, no questions asked—but then I noticed that it was already transcluded into the mainspace, and deleting it had therefore broken a mainspace page. So I undeleted. I was trying to figure out why on earth you would want a perfectly good page deleted, and I noticed that the last numeral of every index entry was missing! I fixed that manually, and made some other OCR fixes. I am guessing that you have been using a regular expression to clean up these pages—perhaps to add the line breaks—and this particular regexp went wrong, and you didn't notice until after you had saved, and you wanted the page deleted in order to get access to the raw ocr again.... Anyhow, this message is just to let you know that I declined the deletion request and proofed the page, but it can still be deleted if you still need it done. Just let me know.

Perfect! Thanks for your manual work. I just tried to recreate the page with the numbers untouched. You know everything exactly and did what I wanted to do.--Ryuch (talk) 00:32, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Hesperian 00:39, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
