I'd like to help the Wikisource that relates to the Land of My Father (literally) but my stubborn monolingualism is getting in the way.  However, I think I can work out a few things that need to be cleaned up to get the proofreading going.

There's only really one template you need, and it's not in the Template namespace.  Someone with admin powers needs to translate this page:-

MediaWici:Proofreadpage index template


That includes creating Welsh versions of the following categories:-

Categori:Index Validated
Categori:Index Proofread
Categori:Index Not-Proofread
Categori:Index - Ready for Match and Split
Categori:Index - Text Layer Requested
Categori:Index - File to fix
Categori:Index - Unknown progress

(The top three are the most important.)

There are similar categories for the Page namespace and at least one of them has been translated already, although not created yet:-

Categori:Darllenwyd y proflenni


According to this:-

https://cy.wikisource.org/wiki/Arbennig:PrefixIndex/Index:

There are only two indexes on the project at the moment (a PDF and a DjVu).  Both Bibles as far as I can tell, although that isn't important.  Just two makes it hard to tell is anthing else is needed; if there is, it may have just not come up yet.


If there is a problem with the Proofread Page software, the best person to ask is User:Tpt on French Wikisource (he is currently the primary developer for the extension).  User:Rtdwivedi has completely rewritten the code recently, or is still currently doing so, so she probably knows a lot too (she's Indian but I don't know which project is the best on which to catch her).


With my previous e-mail in mind, the project might want to decide at this stage if they will allow things like user translation, annotation, wikilinks etc.  This page gives some idea of how different projects do that:-

I hope that's somewhere in the neighbourhood of helpful.
