Wikisource contest tool is a proofread and validation contest tool for Wikisource. This tool will be the extended version of our currently running Indic Wikisource Contest tool.

Background

Our Indic-TechCom is already running Indic Wikisource Contest tool since Jan, 2020. There are 55 contests happened on Indic Wikisource Contest tool from then. But that tool has scalability and other issues such as

It stores data in filesystem
It takes hours to generate stats for contests
It is not scalable to add new community features
It does not validate whether Index book or admin exist or not
It does not have proper UI
It does not have i18n
Both frontend and backend exists on same host

Although Indic Wikisource Contest tool proved itself by hosting 55 contests on it. But to ensure further development to add new features, we decided to develop new tool based on current Indic Wikisource Contest. We will take modular approach to separate frontend and backend.
