Hi! I'm also active on English Wikipedia and Wikidata, and I consider the former my home wiki. I mainly find indices to read via the "Random transcription" button in the sidebar, though I have looked at the monthly challenge as well.
If you like Wikisource like I do, you should...
Done
[edit]In chronological order of when I proofread them.
- Works of merit, in every department of literature; my very first work!
- A penny-worth of wit
- A Catechism on the Thirty-nine Articles of the Church of England; only did the last few pages, but still
- The Second Armada: A Chapter of Future History - an interesting short story; (un?)fortunately most of the index was ads instead
- Declaration between the government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the government of Ukraine, self-explanatory
- Group Messaging Encryption
- Slavery, a poem
- Defeating Putin: the development, implementation and impact of economic sanctions on Russia; also self-explanatory
- A Memorial and Remonstrance, on the Religious Rights of Man
- Aviation Accident Report: Piedmont Airlines Flight 349
- The Truth about China and Japan; an interesting work about Asian history, and the first full-length book I truly proofread cover to cover!!!
- Vivian Grey, a super duper engrossing novel; I did volumes 3, 4, and (mostly) 5
- Vivian Grey/Volume 3
- Vivian Grey/Volume 4
- Vivian Grey/Volume 5; thanks to User:R. J. Mathar for finishing it!
Things I've been (proof)reading
[edit]- The Life and Letters of Lewis Carroll, surprisingly engrossing for a biography
- China: Its History, Arts and Literature/Volume 1 (transcription project); another interesting read about Asian history that I might also go through cover to cover
- Good Newes from New England
- 2,4- and 2,6-Toluenediamine (in the presence of isocyanates) (5516); the first page is an especially hard nut to crack
- The Qur'an (Palmer)
- 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Spherical Harmonics
- Encyclopædia Britannica, Ninth Edition/Trigonometry
Things I really want to (proof)read at some point
[edit]- The American Cyclopædia (1879), tons of interesting stuff; really brings forth my inner Wikipedian
- Encyclopædia Britannica, for similar reasons
- The Development of Mathematics in China and Japan (external scan)
- The Knight of the Burning Pestle
- Much Ado about Nothing
