I have just finished trancribing a will and needed help with terminology use, so I have been Googling.

I came across this:

Category:Probate transcripts - Your Archives

It is a list of transcribed wills on National Archives

They appear to be asking for transcriptions of wills:

Develop DocumentsOnline
You could publish a transcription of one of the documents available in DocumentsOnline. See for example this transcript of a will proved in 1596 which links through to the reference to the will in the index.
