Revised Watlington Hill code #1
Comments

PS: The spiffy new file is even sporting new curly quotes and curly apostrophes in the element contents. (We have to use straight quotes in attribute values, but we want to be using curlies where we can for the body of Mitford's text.) We're not doing that everywhere yet, but this is a start! |

What remains to be done? I think there's more contextual annotation (the stuff we were discussing with our serendipitous correspondent from Watlington Hill for example). Also, (as I wrote over on Box), among other things, the existing app elements will need to be modified like we discussed to pinpoint the moments of divergence more precisely (around specific words rather than whole lines following TEI P5's parallel segmentation model in the TEI Guidelines).

Thanks much for this work, Elisa. I think I should be able to get back to
this around mid October.

I've (at last) revised the encoding of Watlington Hill as we discussed this
summer. I'll save the new copy in Box, but it's also here in this DM_poetry
repository (a new GitHub repository in our DigitalMitford organization),
and the filename is the same as it's always been: WatlingtonHill.xml.
The new file changes a few of the elements around (I replaced <div
type="section"> with <lg type="section"> for example, and <head> elements
inside those old div elements are now <label> elements. This permits us
to nest sections of the poem inside a single <app>, which we needed for
that added section in the middle of the 1827 poem. The <app> elements are
streamlined/simplified across the file now...I've removed the unnecessary
<app> elements that indicated where the two witnesses agreed since we
only need them to indicate moments of divergence.
The new file is the first in our project to officially be schema-checked
by our new ODD-generated schema! (This is a customization of the TEI that I
finally made for our project in August, and I've been testing it.) It seems
to be working as expected--and it should be a little more easy to work with
adding @ref and @corresp attributes that point at site index or proposed
site index entries. As you're in progress with those, you get gentle
warnings in yellow rather than red angry oXygen error indicators, and the
only red error messages are now signaled on outright serious errors. (I'm
hoping our project error messages are a little clearer now, too.) And best
of all, as you go to fill in values for @ref and @corresp, you'll get a
drop-down menu in oXygen to choose which value is most appropriate. You'll
probably still want to doublecheck against the real site index at
http://digitalmitford.org/si.xml , but in most cases you're likely to
find values for things like Scott's Marmion right away b/c of our
super-clear human-readable xml:ids! :-) Like our old project schema line,
this is pointing to an online file on GitHub, so just leave the purple
lines at the top of the file alone and as long as you're connected to the
internet you'll be schema-checked.
@jamesrovira <https://github.com/jamesrovira> This is now ready, I think,
for you and @KellieDC <https://github.com/KellieDC> to keep on going.
Take a look through it and let me know if you have any questions about the
new encoding.
