Project Update 3/25 #6

Open wyattn284 opened 3 years ago

wyattn284 commented 3 years ago

During our meeting today we continued to try to streamline our mark up by working together on a couple of poems to make sure that our imagery mark up was as consistent to one another as possible. In addition, we agreed to assign work for each of the group mates. I (Wyatt) will be working to fill in several of the metadata portions of certain poems that I had left out (variants, recipients, and poem themes), as well as continuing to respond to and change some of the mark up my group mates have commented on. Rachel will be doing the same as me, while Caroline will be cleaning up some of her elision and ellipsis mark up that she had completed for this week (big mile stone for mark up).

In addition to that, we discussed how we will continue to design our website, and some of the page layouts we plan on including in the future as the website comes together, Rachel has done a great job of designing our home page so we will continue to build off of that. (P.S. my "h" key is broken so I have to go in after I write to copy and paste the missing "h's" in, so if you see a lot of typos in here, know that I am sorry for any confusion).

@wyattn284 Very sorry about the keyboard woes! But happy to hear about the good progress on the project, and your site looks great.

You guys seem to be making really great progress!! We also had to change some of our markup this week as there were inconsistencies in some places, and are continuing to work on metadata and design for our website. Sorry about your keyboard and hope it doesn't get too much in the way of the work you're doing this week!

Although my group is working with letters, rather than poems, we have also elected to mark up two of the things your group is doing: general theme and recipients. Most of our letters have the same sender and recipient but we have a couple of exceptions which we wanted to keep track of. Since we've done a lot of technical markup (less interpretive), I've struggled with arriving at one/two word themes which describe the contents of a letter, essentially. Have you guys had any trouble with marking up the poem themes or is it all pretty much straightforward?
