You should ask Tpt, 
he's the one working with OAI-PMH.

Very happy Luiz that you want to mess with that page, 
as we probably need some tests to make it up and running for different scenarios, 
as far as I know few Wikisources actually use it.

I'm currently speaking with 2 companies which do "digital lending", meaning, 
lending ebooks. I told them about that page and related.
I still have no feedback about though.

Hi, Billinghurst,

I think that you have misunderstood the mentioned special page.

The Oai portion on [[Special:ProofreadIndexOai]] reffers to OAI-PMH (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting), not OAuth =)

Luiz,

I don't see it listed at
  https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:OAuthListConsumers
which is where all approved clients are listed at this time (though the
plan is to move the process to meta at some point).

Regards, Billinghurst
