Wikisource Loves Manuscripts/Transcriptions
Wikisource Loves Manuscripts is a call-to-action and a project to support the digitization of manuscripts on Wikisource.
The material presented on this page is a collection of manuscripts that have been stored in Wikimedia Commons for transcription in Wikisource. There are two activities carried out in the transcription scope, namely the workshop and proofread-a-thon.
Workshop[edit]
The workshop is conducted to transcribe digitized manuscripts by introducing new features developed by Transkribus. In this activity, feedback and suggestions are expected from participants' experiences to improve the capabilities of the newly developed software.
