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 enabled on all Wikisources. If you want to install it on your own wiki, you will need to install a 404 handler for generating thumbnails, such as WebStore.

  1. Copy the files folder in the folder extensions/ProofreadPage.
  2. Add in LocalSettings.php :
    require_once("$IP/extensions/ProofreadPage/ProofreadPage.php");
    
  3. Execute SQL (see ProofreadPage.sql)
  4. Add an extension on the table name if you are using one (for example mw_)

[edit] Configuration

[edit] Options

  • The default layout for editing pages is the vertical layout. It is possible to change this and use the horizontal layout, by setting the following variable :
     var proofreadpage_default_layout='horizontal'; 
    
    This setting can be activated by single users, or for all users if it set in common.js
