After watching the statistics page in action, it seems like there are a few nuances that suggest themselves.

Problem 1) The 1923-1925 field notes show themselves to be 94% transcribed, but every page with handwritten content has actually been transcribed. The discrepancy is due to pages which are blank, like the cover. We should add a flag to allow users to indicate that a page is blank, so that it won't count towards statistics.

Problem 2) Pages that are only partially transcribed look (for the purpose of statistics and the table of contents) like pages that are transcribed completely. We should consider adding a flag to allow transcribers to note that a page is not yet finished. This would feed into both the transcription statistics screen and a new "Unfinished pages " screen that would aggregate unfinished transcriptions for users to choose from.

Problem 3) While the act of transcribing is both easy and incentivized, the act of adding wiki-links to link pages to subjects is both difficult and unrewarded. We should add a new type of deeds: "X indexed page Y" for the first time wikilinks are added to a transcription (including the case when those links are part of the initial transcription). This should feed into a new top-10 list for top "indexers".

Love them all! I know that's not a really helpful comment, but I absolutely agree with everything you've put down here.

I think I'll work on numbers 1 and 3 first, since they seem easiest to figure out. We need to chew on #2 a bit more.
