Index talk:Bible (Douay Rheims OT1, 1609).djvu
I'm abandoning this project, but feel free to take it up if you wish.
I am now working on: Index:Douay_Rheims_Bible_1635_edition.pdf instead
Please do not delete or move anything here until I say it's OK. I have to get everything copied over first.
If you want to proof-read, please do it at the new source Index:The_Holy_Bible_faithfvlly_translated_into_English_ovt_of_the_authentical_Latin,_diligently_conferred_with_the_Hebrew,_Greek,_&_other_Editions_in_diuers_languages.pdf
Several reasons:
- I don't want to use scans from fatimamovement.com. These people are the most dreadful blasphemers and heretics.
- I like the fact the whole thing is in a single file.
- I think the margin notes will be easier to do.
- The scans were poor quality. I found better scans, but I couldn't upload them to this page because of file size limits.
- Punctuation is much improved

@DavidPorter65: Hello, I would just like to point out that I've uploaded a while ago all the original volumes at Index:1609_Doway_Old_Testament.pdf and had begun retyping them before I found this project here. I've made sure to find a version with all the marginal notes visible and without any missing pages. Maybe it would be a better source for this project?

@Outlier59: I read the page but I don't understand. Can you point me to an example? DavidPorter65 (talk) 11:25, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
Don't delete, please not yet
editIf anyone is thinking of deleting these, please wait a month or two. I need some time to migrate the content to a new project which has better scans. I wanted to upload new scans here, but they were too big. DavidPorter65 (talk) 07:30, 28 September 2016 (UTC)

- @Allixpeeke: Thanks for your interest, but I've abandoned this project. The best Douay Rheims original is at Index:The_Holy_Bible_faithfvlly_translated_into_English_ovt_of_the_authentical_Latin,_diligently_conferred_with_the_Hebrew,_Greek,_&_other_Editions_in_diuers_languages.pdf Please help me there if you are interested.

- DavidPorter65, I am aware you've abandoned this project. I nevertheless thought this note was worth making for anyone else who might think this project is worth pursuing. Cheers, allixpeeke (talk) 20:45, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
