First point is: is it a safe practice to validate a page without reviewing
its raw code? A second point: is it a safe practice to validate a page
without carefully reviewing its transclusion into ns0?

As you all probably do,
I sometimes go and proofread/validate pages in Wikisource.
The validation (going from a 75% to a 100% level) is probably the simplest
of Wikisource tasks, and it's especially fit to teach fist to WS beginners.
When we do (in it.ws) the Proofreading contest, validated pages count in
thousands.
The point is:
as of today, the procedure is pretty cumbersome.
It's easy to read one text on the right column, and on the left column.
What is not easy is to navigate through the pages:
* our indexes are not easily findable, nor understandable
* the arrows for navigating are small
* for validating or proofreading a page, I have to click on Edit, and then
proofread, click on the right radiobutton, then save.
I was wondering if some of your communities has tried to ease the
procedure,
and make life more easy (and *QUICK*) for beginners and experts alike.
For me, I usually go to the Index Page, open in different tabs different
pages, then start reading.
But I'm sure we could come up with a different, easier procedure, when a
user *just reads, occasionaly edit and save the page as he progresses*. A
quicker, easier way to flip pages and reading.
