muhUrtawIkA multiple entries #78

Closed funderburkjim closed 3 months ago

funderburkjim commented 2 years ago

In making the correction to muhUrtasaMgraha (see #72), noticed that this word occurs in entry L=87785, muhUrtawIkA, and that this entry is composed of a list of several 'titles of works', the first one being muhUrtawIkA.

Believe it would be useful to decompose this L=87785 into several entries, one for each of the works mentioned.

Does anyone have an opinion on this suggestion?

The body text 'Titel von Werken' translates in English as 'title of works' (plural).

If separated into individual entries, should the body text be changed to 'Titel von Werk' (translated as 'title of work' (singular)) ?

I agree.

Agree.

Agree, as alternate headwords.

the correct German translation of 'title of work' would be 'Titel des Werkes' 'Werktitel' would also be good, and 'Titel eines Werkes' (I think, I would have to decide which is best when I see what the new entry actually looks like.)

'Titel eines Werkes'

Would be fine ))

I think it is fine to have them together. Just need to do each name searchable. It is always better to leave the original text untouched and keep a trustworthy digital version. Every free change makes the text less reliable.

I am fully with Serge!

We at AB do the same; searching any individual item in the grouped list would give the full text matter [(HW) list + body] as is & the particular searched word will be highlighted in the list.

funderburkjim commented 2 years ago

@SergeA - Good to have the feedback resisting my suggestion to 'improve' the text. I think your idea can be implemented by the 'alternate headword' approach.

@funderburkjim,

Now that we've finished the task of alt. HW markup, this issue could be closed now. Isn't it?
