Founding Editors: John F. Oates and William H. Willis
+ +--- This new instance of the Checklist is a work in progress. Most of the data already supersede those of the [previous site](http://library.duke.edu/rubenstein/scriptorium/papyrus/texts/clist.html). Previous print and online editions were curated by a board of Editors, founded by the late Professors John F. Oates and William H. Willis. This latest carries forward the spirit of openness and collaboration that they championed. Abbreviations are arrived at after discussion by a variety of stakeholders, including Joshua D. Sosin (Duke), Rodney Ast (Heidelberg), Roger S. Bagnall (NYU), James M.S. Cowey (Heidelberg), Mark Depauw (Leuven), Alain Delattre (Brussels), Robert L. Maxwell (BYU), Paul Heilporn (Strasbourg), volume editors, and others, sometimes including the wider papyrological community (via [papylist](http://lists.hum.ku.dk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/papy)). The quickest way to initiate discussion of updates and abbreviations is to write the papylist, or any one of the individuals named above. Editors are strongly urged to let us know when new volumes are published. Links to digitized volumes available online have been made by Ryan Baumann (Duke), with the help of [a list](https://www.college-de-france.fr/media/culture-ecrite-antiquite-papyrologie-byzantine/UPL1136838564638901641_Checklist_avec_url_des_pdf__9XII17_.pdf) made by Loreleï Vanderheyden and Jean-Luc Fournet. @@ -33,7 +35,7 @@ This new instance of the Checklist is a work in progress.

+Take care to enter your translation in the correct div. When entering a translation of an existing Greek text, SoSOL creates the divs for users. So if there is both a recto and a verso (or similar divisions such as columns), the translation windows already provides the appropriate subdivisions of the text.

......<gap reason='illegible' extent='unknown' unit='character'/>Three dots indicate a break in the translation. Reasons include: untranslatable words or parts of words, presence of mere vestiges, or considerable repetition in the text such that it is not worth full translation.

Suppose you are translating the Greek word ἄβροχος and want to link to the glossary entry. From the translation window mouse over 'Helpers', select 'Terms'; find the desired term in the glossary, click on the red transcription of the Greek word. This will insert into your translation window a sample-filled tag: <place word="" here="abrochos">.
Then, depending on what you want to appear in your translation, enter as follows:
+ <unwatered land=abrochos>

Whatever you enter on the left will appear in the translation; in any case when you mouse over that word in the PN, it will display a pop-up with the definition of abrochos.
