[edit] Sysop
Thanks Zhaladshar, I'll try not to break anything :-) Your guidance and comments were a great help to me when I began contributing here, I still consider it as I seek solutions to meet our goals. I hoped you would be enacting the communities decision, for sentimental reasons, because you took the time to answer my queries and encouraged me to contribute here. Best regards, Cygnis insignis (talk) 17:13, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Learnt a trick ?action=purge
I learnt from Thomas that some of the older uploaded djvu files need to be purged to make the text layer able to be automatically applied. So, one needs to have a url like http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/File:Essays_and_Addresses.djvu?action=purge to get the text layers shaken loose.
With Page:Selections from the Sahih of al-Buhari (1906).djvu/12 I was able to delete our edited copy, and then from the Index page, to open it, and VOILA! the text layer appears. All very sweet. Pity poor Thomas whose back I have been riding and ears chewing as I wring him for information. -- billinghurst (talk) 15:03, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
- Hey, I didn't even think of purging the cache on WS's side. I only tried purging my own. Thanks for that information; I should have realized that. :) —Zhaladshar (Talk) 15:20, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
- To make this easy for us, I have moved over purgetab.js from WP, and you can turn it on in your Gadgets. -- billinghurst (talk) 07:50, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Index that could use your care
Wikisource:Folklore could use some TLC, since I see you adding works like Connla and the Fairy Maiden. Sherurcij Collaboration of the Week: Author:Carl Linnaeus. 15:58, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
- I'll give it a look and see if I can work some magic with it :) .—Zhaladshar (Talk) 16:22, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Tales
- That was easy, nice to read and well presented, thanks for creating it :) Will you nominate it yourself when I'm done? Cygnis insignis (talk) 16:04, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
- Yep. I'd like to see the work go featured. We haven't yet done any fairy tales, either, and I think it's high time we put some children's works out there. :) —Zhaladshar (Talk) 16:12, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
[edit] username change request.
Hello, First of all I am sorry if this is the wrong place to request a username change. I could not find the page for this in wikisource and google showed up your talk archive. If you can do this, can you pls change User:Nvineeth to User:TheMandarin ? This has been already done on en:wiki. Thank you. --Nvineeth (talk) 13:32, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- Done.—Zhaladshar (Talk) 13:59, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] got a bit?
Hi. I'd like my bit back, please. I asked Birgitte and she appears inactive; talk is at
- User talk:BirgitteSB#seen a loose bit around here?,
- Wikisource:Administrator's noticeboard#Admin cleaning out accounts and
- Wikisource:Administrators/Archives/Jack Merridew
Sorry for the fuss. Cheers, Jack Merridew 11:37, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
- This is all finished; Birgitte's handled it. Cheers, Jack Merridew 08:52, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Our old proofread swap (User talk:Psychless#Proofread Swap)
I recently finished The Obligations of the Universities Towards Art. When I was adding in the correct page numbers on the main page, where the pages are transcluded, I discovered that two pages were missing! I guess we both missed that. I used the Google Images version to provide the text for those two pages. You should go to the main page and proofread them to "validate" them. There's also a couple of pages in the real index that you need to validate. Psychless 01:30, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
- Ah! You're right. How weird. Which Google version did you use? I'll have to make a djvu file out of those two pages so that we can stick them into the other djvu file. Thanks for the heads up.—Zhaladshar (Talk) 15:03, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
[edit] The mystery of Dewinter's "unalloyed Fascism"
Can you tell me the background to why this work remains? Both the work and its translation seem to be contentious. billinghurst (talk) 15:23, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
- I couldn't tell you. With the copyvio discussion being 4 years ago, if there was a reason it now escapes me. There's nothing about it that makes it seem like it could be on this site. I'd propose it again for copyvio.—Zhaladshar (Talk) 16:07, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
