Bad page numbers in TOC
On index page xii, the page numbers for the last 5 stories are wrong, offset too low by 4 pages. e.g. 251 is really 255 (They probably miscounted neglecting a couple picture insertions?)

How can the original text be kept intact, but without misleading the reader? Or do we assume the reader will just always use the linked story title to reach the text, and ignore the page numbers? Shenme (talk) 11:18, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Tale number by page number by linked tales
A number of goofs have been found where either links between tales were odd, or the mainspace entries for tales had strange page numbers for start/end. By manually scanning through each tale, make note of all start and end page numbers (and internal page numbers) and the links from tale to tale seen in end notes. This can serve to check against already done mainspace entries and also to help create the remaining missing entries.

tale#  start/end page   internal pages   links mentioned in end notes vertical bar notes when end of tale is also end of page
