Data model

Dear Charles,

Here are the exemplary items you might try to refine:

• MS: Toledo: Biblioteca Capitular, 43-13 (1344-03-04)

• Alfonso X, rey de Castilla y León. Siete partidas, 1 (MS: Toledo: Biblioteca Capitular, 43-13)
• Desconocido. Los diez mandamientos (MS: Toledo: Biblioteca Capitular, 43-13)

There are probably some statements I would try to use if it was my project, especially the Property:P233/+Property:P234 option to create a stemma. This is something I am not quite sure how it will work out. If you talk to computer people they might find that easy. Property:P233 states the previous position(s) in a genetic relationship and Property:P234 is a property to qualify the respective genealogical link like: translation, abbreviation and so on. We manages to get network graphs with these two properties but I'd love to ave a visualisation that exploits the P106 date marker to create the tree...

There are other issues I did not try to solve. The Property:P476 identifier should be able to link straight through into the dataset. You can configure it if you know more about how your software is creating these dynamic links. (That is also the reason why I did not create the "Uniform Title IDno" - you people will know better how to create links into your database.

I also did not go into details with the two texts of the manuscript. Item:Q164746 has some blanks "Input here" that just indicate we could do it, but I did not create the respective items because that would open ever new boxes. The language item "Castellano" might need specification (Spanish would also have been available, but I guess you have more specific terms for different historical periods like we have in German with Middle High German, or Middle Low German).

Thanks, Olaf,

I'm still trying to figure out how to identify Properties to use as examples in the NEH proposal.

I will use this with you rather than e-mail....

A question:

Is it possible to copy a Property and then make changes in it. For example, copy P329 "Holding archive" to create another P with the label "Holding library"?

Distinguishing Qs at the model level

Hi Olaf,

I understand "Goethe (Q5879) author (P21) Faust (Q29478)"

How do I express this in terms of a data label, linking an entity Q author (P21) to Q work written"?
