Thank you for your mention of Google OCR gadget, I didn't know it; I'll
test it for sure, even inf I'm far from happy to became dependent from
Google services.

I don't understand fully your statement "Right now, I'm going to convert
them to DjVu and upload them, without any text information.". Don't you
feel any need of an excellent OCR layer when proofreading it into
wikisource?
I reuploaded the first issue of Weird Tales in DjVu because the PDF
was significantly fuzzier than the DjVu, and looking at the PDF OCR,
it's slightly better than what I can get from the interface. Given the
choice between better images and better OCR, I go with the first one.
Do you feel fully satisfied by mediawiki OCR of
images?
I can't even get the MediaWiki OCR to work. I use the Google OCR gadget.
I don't know how to get xml data about
mapping of words into page image.
It's a pretty distant concern for me, somewhat tangential to producing
transcriptions of the works.
