<div>Hello, Baiju.<br>
<br>
The USFM looks mostly good, but the title set seems to be in need
of editing. Also, proper USFM requires that a paragraph type be
started between any chapter mark and the first verse. Normally,
this is just a plain paragraph, like<br>
<br>
\c 1<br>
\p<br>
\v 1 ആദിമുതലുള്ളതും ഞങ്ങൾ കേട്ടതും സ്വന്ത കണ്ണുകൊണ്ടു കണ്ടതും
ഞങ്ങൾ നോക്കിയതും<br>
\v 2 ...<br>
<br>
Also, the \h, \toc1, \toc2, \toc3, and \mt tags should all be in
the vernacular (i.e. Malayalam), and appear in that order.<br>
\h is a short title (i.e. "1 John") of the book for running
headers and book selection links<br>
\toc1 is the long title (i.e. "The First Letter from the Apostle
John")<br>
\toc2 is the short title (i.e. "1 John")<br>
\toc3 is the abbreviation of this book used in footnotes and cross
references (i.e. "1 Jn")<br>
The \mt set can be used like:<br>
\mt2 The First Letter from the Apostle<br>
\mt1 John<br>
<br>
Normally, \h and \toc2 have the same content, give or take
capitalization.<br>
Normally, \toc1 is the same as all of the \mt# tags concatenated
together (but not always, as sometimes translators put both long
and short titles in their entirety in those tags)<br>
If \toc3 is present, it should be a consistently-used abbreviation
or it may be the same as \toc2 if no abbreviations are used.<br>

<pre>Hi,
I have added few USFM files for Malayalam bible here:
<a href="https://bitbucket.org/sathyavedapusthakam/svpm" target="_blank">https://bitbucket.org/sathyavedapusthakam/svpm</a>
Please review the file structure and let me know if any changes required.
I have created USFM files for those books which I proofread myself.
So it may take more time to complete this work unless more volunteers
coming forward to proofread the text.

The source files were uploaded by Nishad H. Kaippally to wiki source:

He also maintains another source here:

<a href="http://www.malayalambible.in/docs_faq.htm" target="_blank">http://www.malayalambible.in/docs_faq.htm</a> (FAQ)
If nobody else working on Malayalam, I would like to start working on it. I
am very new here, so I need some pointers to start.
I am thinking to use wiki source version as the base. Should I move that
source into a different format (non wiki) ? Should I keep it under version
control ?
Looking forward to your suggestions.

<pre>That page is in Malayalam, but appears to claim the bible being presented
at that wikisource page is an 1870 British and Foreign Bible Society work
(possibly updated in 1910). However, my ability to read Malayalam is
somewhat nonexistent. One of the links close to the Bottom takes you to
individual page views of a PDF which claims on this page:
Encoded by Nishad H. Kaippally 1992 From the Orignal Bible Society of
India Bible. Please report errors in content to <a href="mailto:kaippally@gmail.com" target="_blank">kaippally@gmail.com</a>
It looks like a clean source (from the standpoint of provenance) if this
can be verified.
