Hi all,
I have gotten my old youtube introspector::reader script now running on the wikimedia strategy, and am reading all the english articles as youtube videos. All the code is checked in.
Here is an example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsuoRQDsWCo
The idea is to use latex to format the pages, where the paper size is the size of a youtube screen. the pages are converted to pdf and then I use standard tools to create page images and espeak to read the text of each page.
http://filebin.ca/vabkzw/wikipedia-strategy.tgz posted a tarball of my reader script, (there are only some minor tweaks that are only in bzr) cause launchpad is having issues.
Here is where I checked the code in: https://code.launchpad.net/~jamesmikedupont/introspectorreader/wikipedia-str...
you run it like this : bash ./wikipedia-strategy/alltogether.sh page6/6.xml
the only think left to do is make the splitter script output the page directories like that, it currently emits pages/$x.xml.
Thanks,
mike
Hi all,
Have just checked in the changes, now have an upload script to commons.wikimedia.org, https://code.launchpad.net/~jamesmikedupont/introspectorreader/wikipedia-str...
I have added three videos:
http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Semantic_wiki-web
http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Use_ReCaptcha
http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposal:Interlanguage_reunification
Now I have the tools to create and upload videos of the articles.
Before I process lots of them, will wait for some feedback.
thanks, mike
