Fix a DJVU file?
Hi, I was wondering if you might be willing to repair a DJVU file where the text layer is offset by a page. File:Upbuilders by Lincoln Steffens.djvu and you'll see the problem described at Index talk:Upbuilders by Lincoln Steffens.djvu. I'm not sure how to install djvused, and I'm not unwilling to figure it out…but I figured if it's easy for you, maybe you could just take care of it. (If it's time consuming or otherwise a problem, no worries of course.) -Pete (talk) 00:09, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

your bot and my perfection
Your bot has humbled me deeply, today. I have gotten over worse than this, but wow! thank you--RaboKarbakian (talk) 19:39, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * You're welcome :-) Mpaa (talk) 19:41, 4 September 2021 (UTC)

bot correcting file names
I reverted one instance, are you able to check where the bot has done that elsewhere. 03:26, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
 * The bot did only two changes. It should be ok. Sorry for the disruption. Mpaa (talk) 05:13, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

17 mistakes vs 4
17 mistakes (that I count) before I saw your bot work, 4 mistakes after. That's three quarters of the mistakes standing between me and perfection (as measured by the bot) and that's pretty cool!

Mostly, I am here about. I cannot fathom how that edit could be made non-interactively, meaning, if it were my bot, it would stop and ask a person what to do, because, I have no idea how to write software that would fix it correctly.

Am I right about that, or have you found a way to do this non-interactively? If I am right, I thank you for the extra attention....--RaboKarbakian (talk) 18:53, 16 October 2021 (UTC)


 * It is run interactively, so I see diffs and if in doubt, I check. “Silence in the court ” didn't sound right. I wish I knew how to detect it. Mpaa (talk) 19:45, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
 * So, I really thank you for your time then, and for my vision of software capabilities not being completely trashed!--RaboKarbakian (talk) 20:33, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

Mpaa Tools run for Index:Tarzan of the Apes.djvu
Would you mind running your tools on Index:Tarzan of the Apes.djvu. I saw a number of instances of spaces after em-dashes. Languageseeker (talk) 20:59, 30 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Done, I did not find issues with em-dashes, I fixed some blanks and typos. Mpaa (talk) 21:15, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
