Anti-Slavery Manuscripts - Early 2018

This is the first live version of the ASM transcription project, originally launched in early 2018.

Features

  • Standard transcription project setup (custom front end)
    • Users can login/logout using their Zooniverse accounts and submit Classifications.
    • Custom-built transcription interface to annotate text documents.
    • Paging system ("Filmstrip Viewer") to view Subjects, which are multi-page documents.
    • Cribsheets for users to take snapshots of their work.
    • An extensive Save Progress system.
  • A-B splits for users - users are randomly sorted into one of two workflows to better understand how transcription/classification work can be improved.
