Internet Archive > Commons upload cycle
Wikisources all around the world use heavily GB digitizations for
transcription and proofreading. As GB provides just the PDF, the usual cycle
is:
go to Google Books and look for a book
check if the book is already in IA
if it's not, upload it there
get the djvu from IA
upload it on Commons
use it on Wikisource
For point 4, we have this awesome tool:
https://toolserver.org/~tpt/iaUploadBot/step1.php What we miss right now is
a tool for point 2.1, that would serve many other users outside the
Wikimedia movement too. Eventually, we could think of a bot/script which
would do all the work altogether, notifying the user when their help is
needed (eg metadata polishing, Commons categories, etc.) Mentors: Aubrey is
available for "design" mentorship, paired with a technical expert. We can
maybe ask help from a IA expert.
