Motivation[edit]

Georgi Parpulov published his Catenae Catalogue (Q123013413) in 2021 both as a book and as a relational database. The database has information on 721 Biblical manuscripts and could be linked from Wikidata using the numeric IDs. For this I propose a new property Catenae Catalogue ID.

Parpulov also devised a system of grouping similar manuscripts using letter-number-combinations. As this classification will be used by scholars, it is a valuable addition to Wikidata. The strings are descriptive to a degree. Parpulov Group will store that data.

The general context of this proposal is an effort to bring information on Greek manuscripts to Wikidata.

Let me know what you think. Jonathan Groß (talk) 15:59, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
