The Colophon in <msItem xml:id=addition3" n="3"> on fol. 176b contains special characters in Syriac that cannot be displayed. (See PDF on https://archive.org/details/catalogueofsyria02brituoft/page/496/mode/1up?view=theater, and Xpath: /TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/sourceDesc/msDesc/physDesc/additions/list/item/p/quote in XML).

Two other minor issues have raised: 1st: in the note that says: The scholia are in great part a translation of the παραθέσεις of Joannes Scholasticus of بَيْسان ,ܒܝ̇ܫܢ, or Scythopolis (fol. 2a in PDF on https://archive.org/details/catalogueofsyria02brituoft/page/494/mode/1up?view=theater, and Xpath: /TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/sourceDesc/msDesc/msContents/msItem/msItem/note) The author is left without a URI in the persName. Is this correct?

2nd: in the 2nd note on fol. 176b, (PDF on https://archive.org/details/catalogueofsyria02brituoft/page/496/mode/1up?view=theater, and Xpath: /TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/sourceDesc/msDesc/physDesc/additions/list/item/p), the footnote of Wright's PDF was inserted within the

between parentheses/round brackets. Is this correct?

Thanks @DA-Gharib!

For the colophon, I have added tagged this issue with 'cannot display'.

For the note about the scholia, you can add a URI to the persName since it is within a note element: <persName ref="$URI$">Joannes...</persName>. By the way, in that same note, we could tag παραθέσεις as a literary work instead of with the foreign tag: <ref type="work" xml:lang="grc">παραθέσεις</ref>

For the footnote, we would want to change this so that it is in a <note type="footnote"> element, rather than between brackets. You can move the note element for the footnote, if needed, to match where the footnote appears in the PDF:

...Bishop of Baghdad,<note type="footnote">Probably Lazarus...</note> and Paul...

Let me know if this makes sense. We can leave this issue open even after you complete the second two changes to remind us to fix the display issue

Thanks Will,

Author Joannes now has a URI in the ...... As for his work called: παραθέσεις, no reference on Zotero is found, not even in the Migne , Patrol. Gr., t. iv., where the work of Joannes is attributed to Maximus. Although other volumes of Migne have been recently added this one not yet. Footnote is separated within the note.

Will leave it open for the display issue.

Thanks! For the references to literary works, such as the παραθέσεις, we don't need a URL from Zotero, we just want it tagged with a ref element and a type="work" attribute: <ref type="work" xml:lang="grc">παραθέσεις</ref>

Please check the screenshots.

The xml:lang="grc" after <ref type="work" is giving error whilst it's fine if placed after <title. I also couldn't tag <ref type="work" παραθέσεις<....... </p> <p>Please consult if needed. Will leave the issue open for the display issue.</p> <p><img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c80972e9-fcd3-4fab-bf67-2e4c13f77279" alt="Screenshot (507)" /> <img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/894ae396-ef0d-48f4-87cf-77917c42de09" alt="Screenshot (508)" /></p> </div> </div> <div class="page-bar-simple"> </div> <div class="footer"> <ul class="body"> <li>© <script> document.write(new Date().getFullYear()) </script> Githubissues.</li> <li>Githubissues is a development platform for aggregating issues.</li> </ul> </div> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/jquery@3.5.1/dist/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="/githubissues/assets/js.js"></script> <script src="/githubissues/assets/markdown.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/highlightjs/cdn-release@11.4.0/build/highlight.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/highlightjs/cdn-release@11.4.0/build/languages/go.min.js"></script> <script> hljs.highlightAll(); </script> </body> </html>
