In the next hours I will start a mass deletion of pages on pt.wikisource (64k on ns:0 and 6k on ns:Page).
ns:0 mass deletion is due to an (still) incomplete import of contents from a PD-old dictionary proofreaded by Distributed Proofreaders. The content still is valid and relevant to Wikisource, but the task that my bot had done years ago contains lots of tecnical issues (and certainly 1 definition per content page wasn't the right choice from my side). Content is anyway available at http://www.dicionario-aberto.net ;
ns:Page mass deletion is to prevent BLP issues, since it reproduces raw unformated texts from Commission d'enquête parlementaire done to inquire political corruption scandals. The very few amount of pages proofreaded from this set will be keept.

I'm sending this note since it will change significantly some global Wikisource statistics.

What a pity! Yes, those pages were "unusual" but, hasn't it been possible to convert them into a different text structure? Can't be converted into a proofread project?
