Fnaf World
In 2016, creator Scott Cawthon introduced fnaf world as a fun RPG-themed spin-off that brought a new dimension to the franchise. The RPG format let fans connect with characters like Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy in a way they hadn't been able to before. The game focused on combat and exploration instead of just surviving.

Correcting transcription errors
If I copy out an article, I like to correct transcription errors so others benefit from the corrected version,
But your system if very frustrating, as fast as I can correct errors then more appear.
I usually just copy to my PC and edit there so no one else benefits from my work.
Comments are limited to 500 characters so I cannot even paste the corrected version there.

How 'pages remaining' are calculated
I had a bad experience using the site today. I found the article I wanted but when the system took me to the newspaper I couldn't find the specific article. I then seemed to run down my page view allowance of 40 pages in no time at all. I think the page view option should just charge once a page is selected and printed. Any chance of a refund this time as the system didn't even send me to the correct newspaper page.

Requesting a rescan of images
How do we re request to have a page rescanned when half is missing, but is complete on next page?
Edinburgh Evening News - Monday 01 April 1912, Page 3 has the far column halved - but on page 4 the column on the edge is complete.
This is a scanning issue and could be corrected by a rescan1 vote -
Make it easy to scroll through the pages of a newspapers
I use the site for historical research, and so I might want to look at a series of newspapers around a specific date to see what was happening. It would be great to be able to scroll through a newspaper;s pages (paticularly when viewing on iPad) rather than the 3-4 clicks needed to flick between pages. I'm thinking similar to a Kindle experience - eg one click or tap to skip a page

Web Site performance and OCR
Firstly I think you are doing a great thing with this archive; good job!
However my experience of trying to contribute to your project in a small way and correct the plethora of errors which your very basic OCR generates in the articles I am researching has been very frustrating. Reviewing and correcting a few thousand words is taking hours when it should take maybe only an hour if the performance of the website was quicker and if the user interface for editing had been better designed. In Microsoft Word or some similar software I can see all the errors…4 votes -
Voting for a publication instructions
My colleagues and myself have been struggling to vote for a newspaper to be recommended for digitisation. We are not computer illiterates but have found the voting process far from intuitive, particularly as you have to create a second password in order to vote. Do you have some clear instructions we could share with others who have been put off attempting to vote?

The newspapers you already claim to have on your site
Such misleading information your system has about what dates are covered.
It says you have Cambridge Independent Press 1839 - 1950, BUT YOU DO NOT. Only the odd year after 1900.
Again, Cambridge Daily News 1889 - 1994 but not all years.
It is astoundingly annoying to realise that the reason I cannot find an item is that you are missing those years. Especially when I found so much on a free weekend at newspapers.com!

Ability to Clip Articles
Ability to clip articles as opposed to downloading the page in its entirety without any boundaries for the information you're actually interested in preserving. Think Newspapers.com. For the price of admission the feature is sorely needed.

Please put Newspaper title in downloaded filename
Currnently PDF files downloaded are in the form of BL0000564193810312510011.pdf - can the first ID be replaced with the newspaper title, please? e.g. BLDundeeCourier19381031251_0011.pdf - there is currently no way to link an image to a newspaper without manually viewing the image.

BNA Library Access at Home
During the current lockdown, many public libraries that offer Ancestry and Find My Past but only in library buildings (which are now closed) are offering the same service to library members in their homes. You just have to log in to your library account, and then enter the username and password you are given.
How about the BNA doing the same thing?3 votes -

Save a single article

Search for a phrase is often ignored
When I search for a phrase, for example "W. Hunter" to get only hits for "W. Hunter" it is very annoying that I get endless hits for just "W." Can the search engine not be taught to ONLY look for "W. Hunter" ?

Exact searching
Because words like "and", "of" etc. seem to be used as operators, I often can't use them in the way I'd like. For example, I want to search for the EXACT phrase "The Horse and Hounds". At the moment, I can't see how to do it.
