Last call to sign up for this afternoon's online workshop/working group. All expertise and interests needed!
UoL EpiDoc Study Group met this morning. Things we're planning for the next few weeks:
- marking up an inscription in #EpiDoc and Wikidata, compare the possibilities/affordances
- mark up a notebook page and an epigraphic edition, discuss differences
- do EpiDoc & epigraphy simultaneously
#TEIFriday
Starting in an hour: #EpiDoc Office Hour.
Please join us if you have any questions about EpiDoc XML, or just want to see what other people are up to. All interests and levels of experience welcome!

Bonus points: how would you capture these bits of this multilayered edition in #EpiDoc?
#TEIFriday
It also does not preclude or preempt conversation about more coherent and consistent LOD ontologies of such terms, which is ongoing. (I hope the #EpiDoc Schema will inform such discussion, of course, as it is itself driven by input from many epigraphists, dozens of projects and datasets.)

Third issue, after discussion on EpiDoc-Markup list, among maintainers, and at the #EpiDoc workshop this week, I've added two new values to the open list for @evidence: "iconography" (subject or theme of art accompanying inscription) and "artistic style" (stylistic or decorative features)

After a super useful #EpiDoc workshop in Glasgow, and Textual Editing Lab seminar at the end of it, I'm spending the train trip home pushing a couple of newly identified issues with EpiDoc schema, guidelines and stylesheets.

#EpigraphyTuesday How are we marking up "IIvir" in #EpiDoc?
Landed and settled in Glasgow and very much looking forward to reuniting with @ndefaoite.bsky.social and @palaeofuturist.bsky.social for the #EpiDoc workshop that @dralexa.bsky.social is very generously hosting. Can't wait to see the inscriptions that the participants have chosen to work on.
Looking forward to teaching an #EpiDoc workshop with @ndefaoite.bsky.social @trishaoconnor88.bsky.social & @dralexa.bsky.social all this week. A wonderful array of expertise for a multidisciplinary workshop!
