Hi all, and sorry for late reply.
Thanks a lot for hints, suggestions and endorsements, here and on
proposal's page. It was important to know, that Wikisourcians see
potential in those tools too.
Aubrey> Cropping tool of Italian Wikisource was very helpful, and I
didn't know about it. I was trying to implement similar template as a
temporary solution (before image is being cropped and uploaded as
separate file), in a different way, and wasn't able to make it work the
way I wanted (standard thumbnail styling and functionality). So that was
extreme useful, and I'll definitely use that. Thanks.
I also do appreciate examples of good reports. Reporting is not the
funniest thing to do, so having good guidelines, is helpful.
Thomas> Yes, it would be awesome to have it as part of ProofreadPage
extenstion in future, and I'm glad you also think that way. The only
concern is that IEG has requirement for tools not to require Code review
in Gerrt/additional workload for WMF Techies. Though I just realised
that you have +2 on Gerrit, so if you're up to, may be it will be
possible to make it as part of ProofreadPage extension, and still meet
IEG reuirements?
I wasn't able to catch you on IRC yet, I'll drop you a line on e-mail,
to discuss it in details.
Best,
Aleksey a.k.a. Xelgen

Hi!
It's a very nice project.
The ZoomProof idea looks amazing and it may be a nice idea to build it as a
part of the ProofreadPage extension (maybe using a beta feature during the
development [1]) in order to allow an easy sharing between Wikisources and the
use of MediaWiki backend features (caching...).
Feel free to contact me if you want some help related to ProofreadPage (using
emails or IRC).

Moreover:
regarding the WikiSource IllustrationCropper, did you know about the
Alex Brollo tool?
To test it, go on your oldwikisource account,
and in User:YOU/vector.js copy this:
importScript("User:Alex_brollo/cornersDependencies.js");
importScript("User:Alex brollo/corners.js");
importStylesheet("User:Alex brollo/common.css");
The tool will appear under Tools, and it's called "Ritaglio immagini" (crop
images).
It opens a window which allows you to select and crop an image directy on the
page.
It is extremely useful to use illustration directly on the page.
It is usable both in View and Edit mode.
In the Italian Wikisource we have made it a Gadget and button, so it's active
for everyone.

Hi Xelgen,
sorry for the delay.
I really think that your project is awesome, and I do hope you will get
the funds.
Remember that our previous Wikisource-related IEG helped creating a Wikisource
Community User Group
(http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikisource_Community_User_Group)
which of course is *ours* and you can use :-)
Moreover, if it helps, "copy" our pages
(http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG/Elaborate_Wikisource_strategic_vision):
we put great care in doing our reports, and they were appreciated.
Me and Micru are available if you have specific questions on the IEG.

Hi,
I've made an IEG Grant proposal, to develop few tools for Armenian Wikisource,
which can be localized, adjusted for different languages and used globally in
the future.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG/Tools_for_Armenian_Wikisource_and_beyond
I would appreciate your feedback, ideas and thought, on this, a lot.
Do you find those tool useful for your Wikisource projects? May be you have
small feature requests, which you think will make those tools more appealing.
Also if there's anyone willing to join the project, or to modify tools for
their language version in future, I'd be happy to hear that.
Thanks beforehand,
Aleksey, [[User:Xelgen]]
