Project Task List: launch phase

[ebeshero]

• [x] Make a first-pass transcript of May 24 1823 to the next five entries @tec5271

• [x] Second pass clean-up pass @tylerakam : Clean up mistakes: concentrating on the typescript only. Attempt adding

  • <persName>
  • <placeName>
  • <orgName>
  • <bibl> or <title> (these are used for referenced to published or written literary works)
  • All of these take @ref attributes that point into the site index (SI file)

• [x] Review the original handwritten MS photo-facsimile, and add XML comments if you notice anything missing. Use initials and the ISO date in your comments like this:

  • ALWAYS NOTE what page the entry is on in the handwriting PDF
  • IF the typist marked something unclear, make a guess? (at least alert @ebeshero )
  • Look at the whole page and surroundings and notice if there's a big block of something that isn't represented in the typescript.
  • Add corrections as you can. Otherwise you'll do your work in XML comments. @jdh6067

• [x] @SavannahRicks Start attempting to add @ref or @corresp attributes with values pointing to the Digital Mitford Site Index (SI) file. OR noting if a name may not be mentioned there. Work with the current SI file at https://digitalmitford.org/si.xml

Start on this with the idea of completing one full pass by next Friday 10/28 or Monday 10/31.
