Site-wide inbox ~~for~~ document ~~OCR~~. Upload a scan, confirm '''who''' it is and '''which soldier page''' would change, then Apply.

Site-wide inbox to '''enrich soldier profiles from document scans''' — forms, certificates, clippings, letters, and team rosters. Upload a scan, confirm '''who''' it is and '''which soldier page''' would change, review proposed infobox facts and a short biography draft, then Apply.

== How it works ==

# '''Log in''' (same as photo uploads).

# Upload a document (photo or PDF ~~of a record, form, list, or similar~~). OCR ~~runs on~~ the ~~server; nothing~~ is ~~written to a soldier page yet~~.

# Upload a document (photo or PDF). Printed text uses the local OCR engine; check '''Handwriting / hard scan''' when the page is cursive or faint (uses the site LLM vision model when configured).

# '''Confirm''' who the document is about. ~~If several people appear on one scan~~, you get a table: each person, the matched wiki page ~~(when found)~~, and what would be written ~~on that profile~~. Names, ranks, and ~~service numbers from the scan~~ are matching cues ~~— they are not applied~~ until you approve.

# '''Confirm''' who the document is about. Review proposes '''infobox''' fields and a '''biography draft''' woven from clear facts — not a raw OCR dump. Nothing is written until Apply.

# For '''multi-person IPW / team rosters''', you get a table: each person, the matched wiki page, and what would be written (usually Team membership). Names, ranks, and ASNs are matching cues until you approve.

# Check '''Soldier pages that will be edited''' at the top. Use '''Preview Apply''' to see planned changes without writing. Then '''Apply selected''' (requires <code>ocr-reviewer</code> or admin), or '''Discard''' the job.

# Optional controls (raw OCR text, gallery attach, overwrite ~~existing fields~~) are under '''Advanced'''.

# Optional controls (raw OCR text, document type, gallery attach, overwrite, handwriting re-OCR) are under '''Advanced'''.

You can also start from a soldier page → Gallery → '''OCR a document''' (that soldier is pre-selected).

You can also start from a soldier page → Gallery → '''OCR a document to enrich this profile''' (that soldier is pre-selected).
