General

Categories are useful to extract information from the Wiki, and for the reader to find relvant material. This page documents the categories used, and how to use them. Of course everyone is free to come up with new categories, but it would be could to document major changes here. For an overview of all categories, see https://beta.mgh.de/databases/clavis/wiki/index.php/Special:Categories To add a page to a category, simply insert the relevant tag, beginning "[[Category:...". Note that this text is invisible in the normal view (but one can see it if you edit a page).

Manuscripts

  • Date: Use [[Category:Manuscripts saec XII]] to tag manuscripts written in the twelfth century, and so on. More precise dates can and should be given in the description, the categories help to get an overview.
  • Is the MS digitized? If so, tag it by inserting [[Category:Digitized Manuscripts]] in the manuscript description page. If you want to see all mss in the category, have a look here: Category:Digitized Manuscripts
  • If a MS is not digitized but in your opinion urgently should be digitized, add [[Category:Manuscripts that need to be digitized]]!

To do:

  • Note to self: use standard place names to localize collections. Categories can be structured (category tree). Same for dates.
  • Maybe we can have categories "MS contains collection X, Y, Z"? Would make it easier to link from the collections to all MSS.

Collections

  • Some descriptions refer to collections not yet contained in the database or, more frequently, to more than one collection in the database. Tagging these pages helps to improve the wiki. Use [[Category:Collections not in Clavis database]] and [[Category:Descriptions that need to be split]], respectively.
  • The database entries are based on modern editions (i.e. more or less critical editions 19th/20th c.), early printed books (including Migne's Patrologia), or manuscripts. Use [[Category:Clavis entries based on modern edition]], [[Category:Clavis entries based on early printed book]], and [[Category:Clavis entries based on manuscript]].
  • Collections added to since the 2005 edition are "new": [[Category:New Collection]]
