The tool should only OCR non-existing pages and not overwrite existing pages.

@SCherukuwada - Additional context on this ticket. This issue has been reported multiple times in Wikisource Telegram group and also in the Wikisource Community meetings. Volunteers have expressed that if the works they are creating are not going to show up in search results, it is not worth contributing their time and energy on the project.

I have reached out to the Balinese community. They will be starting a discussion soon!

The easiest option might be to use the existing BookReader tool and build a widget similar to the Pagelist widget.

This sounds super interesting and should be super useful as well.

There are multiple versions of cleanup script available on various user pages and wikis because OCR produces different types of errors across different languages. So, it might be interesting to investigate how to add cleanup.js to Wikisource extension but also allow community members to add their language specific common errors (maybe it all goes to the one global script), perhaps even while they are proofreading and encountering errors.

@Aklapper Yes, Let's resolve it. I tested and things look good to me now.

The widget has been created and it has been enabled on 19+ Wikisources till date.

Let's also study on this can implemented on Mobile view. I appears differently based on the screen size but I do see a Download Epub button on English Wikisource (using WSExport) and a Download PDF (using ElectronPDF most probably) as well. But is not uniform across wikis on whether different formats are available or not.

This looks pretty great to me. I personally think that the third option i.e. to have a little explanation around what Epub, Mobi and PDFs mean will be really helpful.

@Samwilson Do we close this task as the improved tool does look for IA identifiers?
The tool should work better now. Also, the file mentioned in the task was manually uploaded to Commons.
@Jkylefenton The IA-Upload tool has been improved now. Can you check if it works for you now?

@Samwilson Indeed this does capture our discussion neatly. Thank you

Yes! Thank you for pointing to this. This has been completed

@Douglaskmccarthy Indeed, it would be really awesome if we are able to query this data.
