Annotating some first SK20 documents

These are the direct links

• Item:Q7677 SK20-136
• Item:Q7678 SK20-137
• Item:Q7679 SK20-138
• Item:Q7680 SK20-139

What we'd like to have?

• Labels - i.e. titles headlines in English (click edit on top)
• corrections where necessary (click edit on each mistaken statement)
• additional statements using the statement options from this collection: Properties for documents. You find an "add statement" link at the bottom of each data set and you can then create a statement of your choice from the list. (I can create entirely different statements if you need them.)

A statement is usually a "triplet" like Q7677, P21, Q133. The database connects the two Q-items and the P-property between them with words in English, German or Chinese so that you can eventually read it as "Document 136 of Schwedenkiste vol. 20 (Q7677) was authored by (P21) Johann Joachim Christoph Bode (Q133)".

If you want to give a digest in English use the P75 statement that gives you a text field of some 400 characters.

And all the new documents

Thanks for the massive transfer. If you create a spreadsheet (I love Google spreadsheets, where 2 people can edit) with a line on each document - I will turn this into database information. We need columns on author, headline to use, brief description, title transcript, place where written, date, archive holding the file, the file's shelf-mark, the page, folio or number of the document within the file... to create a practical first data set. And I will connect your information with a project you can define to your purposes. This is how Hermann wanted to state his research Item:Q11305 - you can say more or far less about your research - the cool thing is that you can eventually advertise a book with all your research. --Olaf Simons (talk) 21:22, 24 September 2018 (CEST)
