Re: Information in Archive metadata

I would use the API as the main source and then complement by scraping the project page for the rest. This is how the progress goes for the YouTube channel. I maintain my own local database with the information needed that is not part of the API. You also need to keep track of what has been uploade...

Re: Information in Archive metadata

There are also a lot of spelling mistakes for French works. I don't know French, so I wouldn't know - but the French projects were mostly done by French speakers, so there shouldn't be more spelling mistakes than for any other language. :hmm: Are they mistakes in the descriptions, section titles, o...

Re: Information in Archive metadata

Hi, Yes, I use a bot to upload the files. See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/YannBot
If all the information could be extracted automatically, I would be easy and fast.

Also th...

Re: ~[Français] Compilation de poèmes 015 - ez

Dommage, mais OK. Je les garde pour les Poésies complètes. J'avais d'autres idées de poèmes. Notamment de Dieu, de Victor Hugo : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieu_(Hugo)

Re: Language tags at Internet Archive

To be clearer, the issue with searching in IA is because the language tags were not set properly when uploading the files there. For other projects, there is no such issue.

Language tags at Internet Archive

Hi, Language tags at IA are not working: On https://archive.org/details/librivoxaudio , it says there are 16,244 results, but only 69 items in English, 2 in German, and 1 in French. :hmm: It is not possible to have a list of all LibriVox recording in a given language. librivox.org is not really bett...

Re: [FRENCH] Discussion générale d'œuvres potentielles

J'ai bien compris. Pour info, Wikisource est hébergé sur les serveurs de la Wikimedia Foundation, aux Etats-Unis. Et aussi, je suis admin sur Wikimedia Commons, où mon rôle est principalement de vérifier le copyright des documents publiés.

Re: [FRENCH] Discussion générale d'œuvres potentielles

Bonjour, Etant un contributeur de Wikisource depuis le début du projet (2003), je sais que beaucoup de soin est apporte au choix des scans et à la correction des textes. On peut se fier à la qualité quand ils ont été validés, c'est-à-dire relus par au moins 2 personnes. Cordialement, Yann
