From Clavis Canonum


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
