I don’t believe that using Project Gutenberg as the vehicle to self publish has impact as far as WS:WWI is concerned. We are seeing an increasing number of non-scientific non-government works published in the public domain, the distinction between vanity press and independent publishing is growing very grey. ”

“ If you are willing to change all these Indexes: to "ready to proofread", make note of the inability of the current source files that these Indexes are generated from to produce workable text-layers, and then lock & monitor those Indexes so nobody changes the status levels back again - I'd have No problem with "keeping" them around for as long as it takes to fully proofread each & every single one of them. ”

“ The original conversion from whatever type of parent file the work was originally secured in to DjVu collapsed all the layers (foreground, background & hidden) into a single layer. In short, this "confuses" the OCR engine by appearing to be a single image per page rather than dozens & dozens of black words (text-foreground) per page (colored background) . Poor or outdated sourcing prevents the [re] processing of the original file into a workable DjVu at this point in time ”
