Dealing with <lb/> within deleted passages #148

Open nivaca opened 3 years ago

Consider the following fragment: image

The TEI transcription would be something like:

<del>
  <!-- ... -->
  <lb break="no"/>fesionis extitisset post hoc dialogum similum procedens ann ab abbate quoddam
  <lb/>cisterciensis ordinis
</del>
de negotiis monachorum eddiseret an ne scilicet monachos habeant se

Since the deletion covers more than one line (only three shown here), it also covers the <lb/> elements in the text. This means that the last <lb/> (in the line starting <lb/>cisterciensis ordinis) also gets deleted, even if it does "exist" in the line (starting with de negotiis ...).

How can one avoid losing that <lb/>?

I can imagine two possible answers:

  1. Repeat the <lb/>, like so:
<del>
  <!-- ... -->
  <lb/>cisterciensis ordinis
</del>
<lb/>de negotiis monachorum eddiseret an ne scilicet monachos habeant se
  1. Only include the <lb/> in the "existing" fragment, like so:
<del>
  <!-- ... -->
  cisterciensis ordinis
</del>
<lb/>de negotiis monachorum eddiseret an ne scilicet monachos habeant se

I'm inclined for the latter one, as the former one suggests that there are two <lb/> elements. But I'm unsure.
