Choose yes if you have reason to believe that the archiving and long term sustainability of the data is cared for (e.g. because the data is part of a platform that cares for these aspects), even if the documentation makes no explicit statement about it
Select yes, if there is either an explicit claim that continuous maintenance for the project is provided by some institution or you have strong reason to believe that this is the case, even if it is not explicitly claimed, otherwise select no.
Select ‘yes’ if the project offers at least one of the mentioned features.
Single manuscript: a single physical document or a series of documents belonging together, like a multi volume manuscript or a series of notebooks
Single work: a single work, e.g. Plato’s Laches, which might be transmitted in multiple manuscripts
Collection of texts: several abstract texts across the documents of their transmission, e.g Aristotle’s Physics and Simplicius’ Commentary on Aristotle’s Physics
Collected works: a collection of several works of one or several authors, e.g. the works of Plato
Papers: a collection of personal or family documents or personal papers
Archival holding: the collection of a repository
Charters: texts documenting a legal fact by using a special form supporting its validity, e.g. the Magna Carta
Letters: letters of one or several authors
Diary: one or several diaries of one or several authors
The year dates refer to the Gregorian calendar
Classics: before 500 CE
Medieval: 501 CE until 1500 CE
Early Modern: 1501 CE until 1800 CE
Modern: 1801 CE until today
App: any application (for personal computer or mobile devices) apart from browsers with which the project can be accessed
Mobile: a browser-version adapted for mobile devices
PDF: the project or parts of as PDF files
other: other access options apart from HTML-browsers
Structure: Select this if the project allows browsing by elements used to structure a text, e.g. chapters, sections, paragraphs, etc.
Documents: Select this if the project offers to browse by individual source objects, e.g. by the individual letters in a letter-edition, the individual charters in a charter-edition, etc.
any search that offers more complex search than just a word or a phrase, e.g. boolean operators, wildcards, restricted search, etc.
any search that offers to substitute a defined set of possible characters by special characters, e.g. ‘king*’ searching for ‘king’, ‘kings’, ‘kingdom’, etc.
Select yes if it is possible to access an index of a search field, e.g. if the search field ‘author’ is present, a list of all authors the project contains is accessible
any search that offers possible search as soon as the first characters are typed into the search field
texts that explain how to use the search function, e.g. explanation of wildcard characters, operators, etc.
Facsimile Edition: focuses on the visual layer of texts with additional information for access and understanding; no transcription
Archive Edition: focuses on the width of a work, the documents of its transmission, its context; aims at completeness
Documentary Edition: related to the school of “documentary editing”, focusses on the documents rather than on abstract texts; tries to give truthful representations of the documents with (often: diplomatic) transcription and additional information
Diplomatic Edition: focuses on the text (not the visual layer) of documents, tries to give a transcription as accurate as possible
Genetic Edition: focuses on the genesis of texts, usually on the level of microgenesis (within a document) sometimes on the level of macrogenesis (across documents)
Work Critical Edition: focuses on the (potentially: complete) work of an author, aims at completeness on the level of the abstract work (and what needs to be presented to accomplish this)
Text Critical Edition: focuses on the construction of a “best text” or definitive reading by means of textual criticism
Enriched Edition: ’Enriched Edition’ describes digital representations of texts that put a particular emphasis on extracting information from the text, e.g. by elaborate indices, extensive comments and annotations on the content, linking of related information, or formal representation of content
Database Edition: transforms text and documents into structured data to capture the semantic information
Digital Library: provides a collection of scholarly material without the approach of critical engagement with single documents, texts, or works; or simple digital facsimiles; not a scholarly digital edition in the sense of the review criteria
Collection of Texts: textual representations without critical commentary, the application of textual criticism or paratexts that describe, explain or contextualize the texts; not a scholarly digital edition in the sense of the review criteria
Transmission examined: attempt to establish the transmission of the text, the results of which are traditionally reflected in a Stemma Codicum
Palaeographic annotations: accounts of the palaeographic dimension of a text
Normalization: has the orthography been normalised according to a chosen standard (e.g. ’seyn’ to ’sein’)
Variants: accounts of textual variants, i.e. textual differences between documents transmitting the same text
Emendation: corrections or revisions have been applied to the text
Commentary notes: comments regarding any of the phenomena mentioned before or other textual phenomena (not regarding the content)
Facsimiles: any copy of historical documents
Diplomatic transcription: transcription of the document taking account of features like spelling, punctuation, abbreviations, deletions, insertions, alterations, etc.
Edited text: a reading text as constituted by the editor(s), based on procedures like recensio, examinatio, emendatio, correction, modernization etc.
Translations: any translations into languages different from that of the original text
Commentaries: scholarly commentary on the content of the documents
Semantic data: transformation of the text (e.g. an account book) into a database or representation of its content as RDF or the like
DOI: Digital Object Identifier according to the definition of the The International DOI Foundation. The DOIs should be resolvable throughhttp://doi.org/
ARK: Archival Resource Key according to the definition of the California Digital Library. An ARK URL contains the label: ‘ark’ after the URL’s hostname.
URN: Uniform Resource Name using the urn: scheme. URNs always start with the label ’urn:’
PURL.ORG: Persistent Uniform Resource Locator using the PURL concept and administered by the Online Computer Library Center
other service: choose this if an external service other than the above options is used
Persistent URLs: choose this if the project promises permanent URLs or uses a local resolving system between URLs and underlying technical addresses but does not use any of the external services mentioned in the options
none: choose this if no persistent identifiers and adressing system are used at all
basic data: the data from which the HTML or other spin-offs have been produced, e.g. the XML of a specific part of the project. If the basic data is only accessible as a download package containing the entire data, select ’no’ here.
can the basic data be downloaded as a whole via HTTP- or FTP-Link, i.e. not only individual parts like the XML of a specific part of the project
