The Proofread Page extension can render a book either as a column of OCR text beside a column of scanned images, or broken into its logical organization (such as chapters or poems) using transclusion.
The extension is intended to allow easy comparison of text to the original and allow rendering of a text in several ways without duplicating data. Since the pages are not in the main namespace, they are not included in the statistical count of text units.
[edit] Installation
The extension is now enabled on all Wikisources. If you want to install it on your own wiki, you will need to install the WebStore extension (404 handler for generating thumbnails).
The extension uses special "Page" and "Index" prefixes. It is recommended to create separate namespaces for Page and Index (not mandatory). If you want to use other prefixes, you need to change the values of Mediawiki:Proofreadpage_namespace and Mediawiki:Proofreadpage_index_namespace.
