I am looking for helpers for a project from which HanDeDict (
http://chdw.de) and CC-CEDICT (
http://cc-cedict.org) will profit. It resembles Gutenbergs distributed proofreaders system but it is manual.I have dictionaries which are public domain - they are not very old - 1970s/1980s. One of them is a physics dictionary with ca 30000 entries (Chinese->English).I need people who read the Hanzi in picture files and type them together with a line number into a text file or better an Excel or OpenOffice Calc file.Example:
http://www.chinaboard.de/files/zeigen.jpgI have the English translations from an OCR and I am proof-reading them at the moment. When the Hanzi (the Pinyin are not necessary) are available, I join the sets and they will be read into CC-CEDICT.We at HanDeDict then still have to translate them into German.:cry:Anybody interested ?Then please contact me direktly via
handedict@gmail.com.It most probably will start in October as I have to prepare the picturefiles.Looking forward to your help. Please forward our request to friends.Michael
