2nd February 2010 Library Updates
January has been a busy month. Anyone who has spent time reading some of the millions of pages in the Ultrapedia Library will have noticed recognition errors and other 'noise' not really relevant to the text. As almost all of the original written works have been through many hands in their lifetime these errors occur for many reasons - one of which is marginalia. Check out the Ultrapedia Blog entry 'Recognising a Problem' for further explanation of recognition errors and why they occur.
Its a labour of love, as many of the documents are reviewed manually to clean up the errors, and its thanks to our dedicated team who are passionate about their craft, that more than 31,000 documents in the Ultrapedia Library have been updated and cleaned up, to leave a crisper and more accurate representation of the original written work.
