Editorial practice

[edit]

One should either_ not use long s [ ſ ] (as it is the only type of s in that style of handwriting) or one should use long z [ ʒ ]as well. This practice of marking one allograph but not an other is inconsistent. Also one should make a note, that there are some diacritics used (dots and acute acents) which are not represented in the transcription. The accents are not well covered in scientific literature due to the difficult access to the original and the bad quality of the facsimiles. Szabi (talk) 17:47, 10 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
