This is a TEI-XML version of Emily Dickinson's poem "Tie the strings to my life, my Lord." It includes an apparatus based on her own variant readings. This exercise is an example of how one can use TEI to create digital editions of texts.

wlpotter / wright-catalogue-pull-request-workflow.md
Created December 6, 2021 13:37
A workflow for creating new XML snippets of manuscripts in the Wright Catalogue; see https://github.com/srophe/wright-catalogue/

Please use these steps to upload drafted manuscripts via a GitHub pull request.

  1. Create a new branch from master and give it a meaningful name, e.g. Potter_2021-12
    • If you had already created the manuscript files on master, bring those changes onto the new branch
    • If you have been creating and drafting ms files elsewhere on your local computer, copy and paste those files into the folder that contains your template: /data/3_drafts/YourName/
  2. Publish your new branch to the GitHub remote repository
    • Press the button in the upper right of the GitHub Desktop application. Note: You may need to Fetch origin before you can publish your branch. If so, the option to publish should appear after you press the Fetch origin button.
  3. Commit the changes onto your new branch
    • In the list of changed files on the left of GitHub desktop, make sure only those files which are fully drafted (all data added and all questions addressed in our meeting) are checked. Uncheck any files that need more work

Last active April 1, 2022 14:45
A workflow for updating Syriaca.org's Manuscript Records to use the new physDesc encoding method
  1. Go to Decoder and find the tab "Records-with-Old-PhysDesc"
  2. Using column A ("file location on britishLibrary-data") find the file
  • Make a new branch. Its name should include the date, your user name, and the reason, e.g. "2022-03-18-wpotter-physDesc-update"
  • Open the corresponding file in oXygen, found under /britishLibrary-data/data/tei/
    • If the URI is for an msPart, column A will have a "#PartX" after the file name referring to the @xml:id of an msPart element within the file
  1. Find the corresponding Wright Catalogue entry
  • Using column D (the volume and page in the catalogue) and column F (the roman numeral for the catalogue entry in Wright), navigate to the correct entry in the Word document
  1. Verify that the entry shelf mark matches the associated URI
  • If the shelf mark at the end of the entry in the Word doc matches column E (the BL shelf mark), proceed to s
