Hi Louise, It appears that JB/014/184/001 & JB/014/185/001 are duplicates.

Your transcript of JB/087/104/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. You’re right, this was a challenging page! You did well with the transcription and tagging here though. We were able to clarify a few of the words you were unsure about and removed some of the unclear tags. We also moved the position of the marginal note up the page, to the point where Bentham signified that it should be inserted.

Your transcript of JB/087/103/002 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. This transcript did not require many improvements but we were able to fill in a few gaps here and there. Remember you can see all the changes we made at this link: http://www.transcribe-bentham.da.ulcc.ac.uk/td/Help:Feedback Thanks very much for taking so much care over these transcriptions.

Your transcript of JB/087/103/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. The transcript was largely accurate and tags were applied well. One thing to bear in mind with the gap tag - a separate gap tag should be inserted for each illegible word. These papers are part of Bentham’s writings on the topic of ‘indirect legislation’, that is ways in which the government could influence people’s behaviour without directly applying punishments. If you would like to, you can read a bit more about indirect legislation in this blog post: http://blogs.ucl.ac.uk/transcribe-bentham/2015/02/16/box-150-a-thank-you-from-the-bentham-project/ This completed transcript has now been locked to prevent other users from altering it.

Your transcript of JB/087/102/003 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. Again this was a strong transcript, there were just a few words that we corrected and gaps that we filled in. You also forgot to add a paragraph tag to the second paragraph. You handled the tagging and transcription of the triple correction in the second paragraph expertly! We moved your marginal note slightly – it should be positioned where Bentham includes a symbol in the main body of the text to identify the point of attachment of the note. If anything is unclear, please do get in touch. Many thanks for your submission and contribution to the project!

Your transcript of JB/087/102/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. This was another excellent transcript with few issues. We corrected a few of the transcribed words but the words and the tagging were mostly correct. Many thanks for your submission and contribution to the project!

Apologies - the below message should refer to JB/087/102/002.

Your transcript of JB/087/102/003 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. This was a very good transcript, we only had to make a few small changes to the words and the tagging. You can see the changes we made by following the instructions at this link: http://www.transcribe-bentham.da.ulcc.ac.uk/td/Help:Feedback You dealt with the marginal note in the correct manner here. One thing to look out for are catchwords, where the first word from the following page is inserted in the right-hand lower corner of a manuscript folio below the last line. These should be marked with an addition tag. This completed transcript has now been locked to prevent other users from altering it. If you have any questions, feel free to send us a message.

Hi, thanks so much for the feedback. I have a question: I am not a native French-speaker, should I not transcribe French content? What are the guidelines for Latin content? Thanks. Joe

Welcome to the Transcribe Bentham project and thank you for your first transcript of JB/010/001/004, which was an excellent effort. The transcription of the text and the tagging were both very good. We have made a few small changes to your transcript, which can be viewed at [http://www.transcribe-bentham.da.ulcc.ac.uk/td/Help:Feedback ]. If you have any questions, please send us a message. We look forward to receiving more of your transcripts in the future!
