Welcome new user

Welcome to the Clavis Wiki!

• Do you have a favourite canon law collection? Find it here https://beta.mgh.de/databases/clavis/wiki/index.php/Description_of_the_collections and start improving the text.
  • Choose "edit" (upper right hand corner of any entry) and start writing.
  • If you want to add secondary literature, please choose "edit source" rather than "edit" and use this bibliography (simply copy&paste the suggested citation in brackets and ignore it looks ugly; "{{Author|Ann Other}}, Publication" will become "Ann Other, Publication". If the title you want to add is not found here, please provide full bibliographical detail (but don't worry too much about the style).
  • Categories can be used to mark all copies of a given collection. Find the relevants manuscript(s) in this list; use [[Category:Manuscripts of XY]] where 'XY' is the Clavis key for the collection in question. See here for the list of keys.
  • Improve the entry! Don't be too shy. Linda wanted Clavis to go on.

• Do you have a favourite canon law manuscript? Find it here https://beta.mgh.de/databases/clavis/wiki/index.php/List_of_manuscripts
  • blue entries already exist - just click on any and start improving the entries
  • red entries have no page yet. Click on the red link nonetheless, this will create a new page once you enter something and don't forget to click "Save page".
  • All information is welcome, esp. dates, provenance, and links to digital images. This is already nice: Admont,_Stiftsbibliothek,_43
  • Adding categories to the entries is very useful. Simply copy&paste from the Categories page.

• You can improve descriptions of individual collections by standardising the page titles. This requires some experience with Wiki functions, but if you are familiar with the move function, the REDIRECT and how wiki links work, you can easily do this using a list of standardised page titles ready for copy&paste; see here.
