Feature: Where was I? #5
Description

I had an idea for an additional feature for FtP: a discussion tab, similar to wikis, but just on the front page of a collection. For the Klauber journals in particular, it seems as if that might be useful for discussion about where various transcribers left off, and questions about particular spellings or what something might mean. So I could denote: “Ended at 1923, page 6” or “On 1923, page 5, second paragraph: what species is being referenced?” or “Need articles written for species.” Alternately, if users enter such things under the Notes field in each page, perhaps there might be a way to index them together on a Discussion tab within the Collection or the Dashboard, so anyone could see at a glance what needs to be worked on or followed up upon?

3 directions to go here: 1) status for pages (not started; part-transcribed; fully transcribed, needs linking/editing; finished) to be displayed near work (perhaps also on contents page?) 2) show activitystream for scribe: "Perian Sully transcribed 5 pages of Klauber's 1932 Feild Notes, from March 4 to part of March 9" 3) a user-specific bookmark/"where was I?" feature.
