We also tagged the words going up the side of the page as a note, rather than an addition. This completed transcript has now been locked to prevent other users from altering it.

Your transcript of JB/538/204/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. You did a very good job of deciphering this difficult page – well done! We made a few small changes and worked out the ‘silence’ part. I also added paragraph tags to the page. A reminder that you can see the changes we made by following the instructions at this link [1].

Your transcript of JB/014/306/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. You have provided a good reading of a difficult page here. We were able to improve a few bits here and there but some gaps will have to remain for now. The transcript is a good basis for further research and editorial work so we have been able to lock the page. Many thanks for your submission and contribution to the project!

Your transcript of JB/014/298/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. Another excellent transcript, thank you! One improvement that could be made is that line breaks can be added to headings, to show when they appear on different lines.

Your transcript of JB/014/155/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. Thank you for your efforts with this tricky manuscript – especially the difficult section at the top! We were able to fill in a few gaps but many of the words remain unclear for now. We have locked the transcript because this is a good rendering of the page that Bentham Project editors could work on in the future. Not to worry about the prose being nonsensical – this often seems the case even when we can transcribe every word of what Bentham is saying! Two things to bear in mind that could help with future transcriptions. There were a couple of paragraph tags missing from the transcript – these need to be applied to every paragraph on a page. Bentham also writes the date and title at the top of many pages – this info can usually be found in the blue section at the bottom of the manuscript page. You need to be in viewing mode rather than ‘Edit’ mode to see this info. Hope that helps a bit! If you have any questions, please do send us a message. Many thanks for your submission and contribution to the project!

Your transcript of JB/014/154/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. Latin is beyond my expertise so I have gone with your reading of the Latin section – it will be corrected fully one day in the future if we use this transcript in an edition. The rest of the transcript was very good, despite the difficult handwriting! This completed transcript has now been locked to prevent other users from altering it.

Your transcript of JB/012/245/002 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. Thanks for transcribing a French manuscript with difficult writing! This a good reading of the page, both the content and the necessary tags. We were able to clarify a few unclear words and fill in a couple of gaps. Bentham often uses older French spellings like ‘etoit’ and these should be included in the transcription, as you have done. A reminder that you can see the changes that we made to the transcript by following the instructions at this link: http://www.transcribe-bentham.da.ulcc.ac.uk/td/Help:Feedback This completed transcript has now been locked to prevent other users from altering it.

Your transcript of JB/002/375/001 has been checked and accepted by the Transcribe Bentham editors. Thanks for tackling a difficult page – with pencil markings and crossings out! You did a good job of the transcript here but we just needed to tidy up the tags a little. One thing to watch out for is paragraph tags – all text which is not part of a heading or a note should be encoded in a paragraph tag.
