Better OCR and another tool
You will find a far better OCR of the same text here. The text and the pages numbers are the same ones as the previous OCR's so copy-pasting it makes things better easily.--Zyephyrus (talk) 15:45, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * —and still better this one.
 * And have you noticed a very useful tool in the WikiEd menu: a button to convert formatted ordinary text into wikified text with only one click? --Zyephyrus (talk) 09:19, 4 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I tried WikEd at one point, and found that under the old PAGE: format that it was a little problematic. Though I suppose that I could try it again, and talk to Thomas to see if we can have a nice merge function.  With Firefox, I also find it very useful to have a Dictionary installed as a plugin, and to have the Check Speeling  turned on and highlighted. -- billinghurst (talk) 21:53, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

This scan at archive.org includes several pages that are missing in this version. If this book were abandoned, I would probably just overwrite the old version at commons... as it is, I suggest taking this text and moving the currently typed pages into place. I know there is someone around here capable of reordering Page: namespace pages the right way... I just forget who it is. Having the opening pages and a clear scan of the entire book will help this project get started. I will gladly help a bit, too.--Mkoyle (talk) 01:25, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

=== FIRST BOOK

===

Burckhardt, in his famous treaties, Die Kultur der Renaissance in Italie, charades the Italian renaissance as the discovery of man. The historical conditions led to

obtained like this:

You can see the result here. Is it ok?

 * The next division was written differently in different parts (see for instance Book I and Book VII), I will first go on with correcting [[Media:Encoding bugs December 9 2009.png|the encoding bugs, here is an image to make what I mean understood]], then I will come back to how to write this division. --Zyephyrus (talk) 23:58, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Keep red links?
Hi all,

The red Table of Contents will be removed when we transclude the corresponding proofread page. Do you wish that I correct the links in order to have them blue, I mean: linked to the Main space? (Red is a pretty color ;-) ) --Zyephyrus (talk) 16:39, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
