Need Aid to Build Early Writings Site
Copying the plea for help from the Early Christian Writings homepage. The list of possible jobs here is not exhaustive; another kind of job could be programmer. Please just be sure to email me at peterkirby@gmail.com if you want to help build the site.
I need volunteers (with or without special skills) to help with the EarlyWritings websites. Anyone, for example, can volunteer to help convert scanned books in English and their images into machine-readable text (proofreader). People who know any combination of English, French, and German can help translate among the three languages in which input to the sites will be accepted. People who know any of these three languages, plus one of another seven--Mandarin, Japanese, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, Arabic, Hindi--can help with the translations to these languages. Anyone with an understanding of English, French, or German and a familiarity with scholarship can make contributions. Lastly, those with facilities with the original languages (such as Greek, Hebrew, and Latin) can help with making fresh translations of the original texts or better critical editions of the original texts. Please email peterkirby@gmail.com in order to volunteer and mention any areas of interest or skill. Some jobs (those requiring more special skills and dedication, such as original language facility) may even be compensated. There are also more opportunities that have yet to be thought of (e.g., spam scouring and quality of submission checking) that require no special ability. So email peterkirby@gmail.com today to express interest!
