MoEML Quickstart
¶Part I: Introduction to Markup
Unlike past generations of editors, we are producing texts that must be readable
by machines before they are rendered and made readable by humans. Therefore,
virtually every editorial choice must be tagged in such a way that a computer
can both interpret it and display it (
renderit) in an interface. We call this level of machine-readable information
markup.
Markup has the additional advantage that we can process a marked-up text in many
different ways. We can change how we render it. We can give readers options
(e.g., to turn things on or off, to change the font, to display the long S or
convert them all to short s). We can transform the marked-up text into many
different types of outputs: HTML pages for display on a website, PDFs, ePubs,
etc. We can index it, link to it, generate concordances from it, count things in
it (words, lines, etc.), search it, and store it for long-term digital
archiving.
The effort you put into markup makes your text extraordinarily valuable for many
users because it can be used for many diverse purposes.
¶What is Markup?
Markup is information added to a text in order to say something
about the text. As a skilled reader of texts, you already
have an incipient understanding of textual markup. White space, paragraph
breaks, italicization, punctuation, capitalization, square brackets, and
other features of a printed text are all forms of markup that signal
something to the reader. For example, we sometimes recognize poetry in early
modern texts because it is (often) italicized. The early modern printer set
poetry in italics to say something about the text. Are the italics
part of the text or are they saying something about
the text? That’s where print markup gets murky—computers need
much greater clarity than we need as human readers.
¶Terminology
Tagging, marking up, and encoding are
interchangeable gerunds.
The information added to a text is markup.
When we add markup to a text, we mark up the
text.
You will also see markup spelled mark-up or
mark up.
¶MoEML’s Markup Language
MoEML uses a markup language known as TEI-XML. It is a dialect of XML devised
by the Text Encoding Initiative (thus the acronym TEI), a consortium of
people who came together to devise a markup language specifically for
text-bearing objects (manuscripts, books, documents). XML stands for
eXtensible Markup Language. It is not a single language, but a set of
standards for writing XML languages. The standard was published in 1996 by
the World Wide Web Consortium. It was designed to replace SGML.
¶Elements, Attributes, and Values
What does markup look like? Let’s start with an example using italics.
Italics can indicate many different things:
-
Do you really want to know the truth?
-
Do you know what the word palimpsest means?
-
Stow is the author of the 1598 Survey of London.
-
This streete is also a part of Limestreete warde.
-
In the anno mundi calendar, the year 1 is the year the world was created.
A human reader can read ambiguous markup. When a human sees italics, they can
infer their meaning through contextual clues. A computer, however, can not.
As encoders, we must specify what italics mean in each given scenario:
-
Emphasis: Do you
<emph>
really</emph>
want to know the truth? -
Words as words: Do you know what the word
<term>
palimpsest</term>
means? -
Titles: Stow is the author of the 1598
<title>
Survey of London</title>
. -
Names: This streete is also a part of
<placeName>
Limestreete warde</placename>
. -
Foreign words: In the
<foreign>
anno mundi</foreign>
, the year 1 is the year the world was created.
descriptive markup.
An element is the tag that wraps an item in the text:
<title>Survey of London</title>
You can think of an element like a noun because it
describes what something is. Here, Survey of Londonis the text node. The text node is the thing you add markup to. When marking up a text node, it must be wrapped in both an opening tag (
<title>
) and a closing tag (</title>
).
But what if you want to specify what kind of title you have? You
can add an attribute and value to your element
tag:
<title level="m">Survey of London</title>
In this example, the attribute is @level
and
the value is "m"
. You can think about attributes as
big categories—they are not specific until you add a value. In this example,
@level
asks what type of title is Survey of London?and
"m"
answers, it’s a monograph!
To refresh:
-
The element describes what the text node is (i.e.,
<title>
). -
The attribute is a category on the element (i.e.,
@level
). -
The value specifies the attribute (i.e.,
"m"
).
As you can see, in Oxygen, elements, attributes, and values are different
colours. Note that attributes and values are only added to the opening
tag—the closing tag does not repeat them. It is also important to note that
elements can have more than one attribute:
<title level="m" when="1603">Survey of London</title>
In some cases, an element can be self closing. A common example is
the element <lb>
(line beginning), which is explained in depth below.
While particular elements, attributes, and values can vary depending on the
XML language, the structure of an XML element is always the same.
¶Part II: Tagging John Stow’s Survey of London
At MoEML, we use a specific set of elements, attributes, and values. In our
editions of Survey of London, we tag bibliographical
codes, dates, organizations, toponyms, and people. So far, we have progress
charts of our 1598 and 1633 editions to track who did what and what remains to
be finished:
¶Tagging Bibliographical Codes
As an encoder working on a primary source document, your main job is to
represent the original source document as faithfully as possible. In other
words, you are using markup to describe how the text appears
(alignment, italics, etc.). The overriding concern here, however, is to
tell the truth. We do not mark up texts with the goal of
rendering them in a particular way; we mark up texts truthfully
to capture information about the page and then we render them how we would
like based on the markup. A good way to think about
bibliographical code markup is this: the MoEML website may not exist fifty
years from now, but the underlying XML documents that
make upthe website will. Therefore, when marking up a document, an encoder’s focus should not be on how the document appears on the current MoEML website, but to make sure that all bibliographical codes (paragraphs, italicization, punctuation, capitalization, etc.) are captured in a way that is helpful for future researchers and students.
¶Proofing the Transcription
Our editions of Survey of London began as
EEBO-TCP diplomatic transcriptions, which means that most of the text
was transcribed by non-MoEML encoders. Because of this, MoEML research
assistants need to proof each chapter against the manuscript to fix
errors and to make sure the text conforms with our project-wide
conventions.
Before you start proofing the transcription against the manuscript, read
Conventions for Diplomatic Transcriptions. It is
a short document that outlines which typographical, orthographical, and
compositorial features we retain in our editions of primary source
texts.
The manuscript pages you will need are already linked to each page:
![facs_example.jpg facs_example.jpg](graphics/facs_example.jpg)
You can also use this link to flip through UVic’s copy of the 1633 Survey of London that was digitized by Special
Collections.
In addition to proofing the actual text, you will need to proof a few
common bibliographical codes: line beginnings, hyphens, line groups,
italics, and marginal notes. Each is explained with examples below.
¶Line Beginnings and Hyphens
Self-closing
<lb>
elements are used to indicate line beginnings in
prose:
<p>One being their Chieftain was called Robin Hoode, <lb/>who
required the king and his company, to ſtay & ſee his men
ſhoot <lb/>whereunto the king granting, Robin Hoode whiſtled,
and al the <lb/>200. Archers ſhot of, looſing all at once, and
when he whiſtled a<lb type="hyphenInWord"/>gaine they likewiſe
ſhot againe, their arrowes whiſtled by craft <lb/>of the heade,
ſo that the noiſe was ſtrange and lowde, which great<lb type="hyphenInWord"/>ly delighted the king and Queene and
their Companie.</p>
If you are adding a <lb>
to your work, you only need to
use the one self-closing element because you are not qualifying a text
node (notice the / within the element). In the above example, note that
some of the line beginnings occur in the middle of words. For these
cases we use a self closing <lb>
element with an attribute of
@type
and a value of "hyphenInWord"
. As you can
see, the hyphen character (-) is not transcribed. Only transcribe the
hyphen character when it is actually part of a word:
<p>(or ſlip) of Gilli-flowers</p>
¶Line Groups
Most of Survey of London is written in prose and
is encoded with
<p>
(paragraph) and <lb>
(line beginning).
When Stow swtiches to poetry, however, we
use <lg>
(line group) instead of <p>
(paragraph) and wrap
each line in <l>
(line):
<lg>
<l>Mighty Flora, Goddeſſe of freſh flowers,</l>
<l>which clothed hath the ſoile in luſtie greene.</l>
<l>Made buds ſpring, with her ſweete ſhowers,</l>
<l>by influence of the Sun ſhine.</l>
<l>To doe pleaſance of intent full cleane,</l>
<l>vnto the States which now ſit here.</l>
<l>Hath Vere downe ſent her owne daughter deare.</l>
</lg>
<l>Mighty Flora, Goddeſſe of freſh flowers,</l>
<l>which clothed hath the ſoile in luſtie greene.</l>
<l>Made buds ſpring, with her ſweete ſhowers,</l>
<l>by influence of the Sun ſhine.</l>
<l>To doe pleaſance of intent full cleane,</l>
<l>vnto the States which now ſit here.</l>
<l>Hath Vere downe ſent her owne daughter deare.</l>
</lg>
¶Renditions
Below are images of the 1598 Survey of London
(left) and the 1633 Survey of London
(right):
![rendition_comparison.jpg rendition_comparison.jpg](graphics/rendition_comparison.jpg)
Note that in 1598, the text sometimes changes font, and in 1663, the text
is sometimes italicized. These features are called
renditions.
Since certain feautures of the text (i.e., font, italics) tend to appear
the same way throughout our editions, it would be impractical to
individually
styleevery case (for example, imagine having to add the font type, font weight, and font size every time you wanted to italicize something). Instead, we add descriptions called
renditionsto the teiHeader of our primary source documents and refer back to them in our encoding. All renditions are nested under
<tagsDecl>
. If you are interested in
learning more about the teiHeader and styling, see Encoding
Primary Sources.
These are the elements, attributes, and values you will use to tag 1598:
-
Element:
<hi>
-
Attributes:
@rendition
-
Values:
"#stow_1598_xml:id_R"
-
Element:
<hi>
-
Attributes:
@rendition
-
Values:
"#stow_1633_xml:id_IR"
"#"
+ xml:id of the chapter (i.e.,
"stow_1598_xml:id"
) + "_R"
. To encode the italics
in 1633, use the value "#"
+ xml:id of the chapter (i.e.,
"stow_1633_xml:id"
) + "_IR"
. There are more
renditions than these (find them under <tagsDecl>
in your document), but these are the main ones you will need to
know.
Here is how the text node looks when it is marked up. The rendition element
in the header is also shown:
<!-- In the header: -->
<rendition scheme="css" xml:id="stow_1598_FARR1_R">font-family: "Georgia";</rendition>
<!-- In the body text: -->
<p><name rendition="#stow_1598_FARR1_R" ref="mol:FISH10">Iohn Fiſher</name> Mercer gaue <hi rendition="#stow_1598_FARR1_R">600</hi>.</p>
Note that if the text node is already wrapped
in a <name>
or <ref>
element (both of which are explained
in depth below), you can add the attribute (@rendition
) and
value ("#stow_1598_xml:id_R"
or
"#stow_1633_xml:id_IR"
) directly to the present element. If
not, wrap the text node with the <hi>
element and then add the correct
attributes and values.
¶Marginal Notes
Like italics, marginal notes tend to appear the same way throughout
Survey of London. Because of this, the same
system with the teiheader and styling is used. For now, all you need to
know is what elements, attributes, and values are needed to wrap the
text node of a marginal note.
These are the elements, attributes, and values you will use to tag
marginal notes in 1598:
-
Element:
<label>
-
Attributes:
@place
-
Values:
"margin-left"
,"margin-right"
-
Element:
<label>
-
Attributes:
@place
,@rendition
-
Values:
"margin-left"
,"margin-right"
,"#stow_1633_xm:id_lmlabel"
<p>THe ſecond warde within the wall on the eaſt part is called Ealdgate warde, <label place="margin-left">Ealdgate ward</label> as taking name of the ſaide gate, the principall ſtreete of this warde begineth at
Ealdgate.</p>
Marginal note in 1633:
<p>Now in Friday ſtreet, <label rendition="#stow_1633_BREA3_lmlabel" place="margin-left">Friday ſtreet.</label> ſo called of Fiſhmongers dwelling there.</p>
As you can see in the above examples, marginal notes are
located directly within the text. When it comes to rendering, they
render either to the left or right ("margin-left"
or
"margin-right"
) in line with the surrounding text.
This is is a side-by-side comparison of the 1598 Survey
of London manuscript on EEBO and the edition we have created
on the MoEML website. As you can see, our text looks similar to the
manuscript:
![marginal_notes.jpg marginal_notes.jpg](graphics/marginal_notes.jpg)
¶Tagging Dates, Companies, Toponyms, and People
In addition to tagging bibliographical codes, we also tag dates,
organizations, toponyms, and people. By doing this, we are able to link our
texts to MoEML’s rich encyclopedia which includes an orgography,
placeography, and personography.
Here is a quick summary of what the tags will look like. They will be
explained in more detail below:
Situation | Example |
Julian Date |
<date when-custom="1598" datingMethod="mol:julianSic" calendar="mol:julianSic">1598</date>
|
Reign of Monarch |
<date when-custom="r_HENR6" datingMethod="mol:regnal" calendar="mol:regnal">reigne of <name ref="mol:HENR6">king
Henry the ſecond</name></date>
|
Specific Year within Reign of Monarch |
<date when-custom="r_HENR6_09" datingMethod="mol:regnal" calendar="mol:regnal">ninth of <name ref="mol:HENR6">king
Henry the ſecond</name></date>
|
Organizations |
<name ref="mol:META1" type="org">Merchant Taylors’
Company</name>
|
Places |
<ref target="mol:TOWE5">Tower of London</ref>
|
People |
<name ref="mol:STOW6">John Stow</name>
|
Before we discuss how to tag Survey of London, try
to identify the elements, attributes,
values, and text nodes in the above
examples—remember they are colour coded!
¶Tagging Dates
In Survey of London, you will need to know how
to tag three types of dates: regular dates in the Julian calendar,
reigns of monarchs, and specific years within reigns of monarchs.
These are the elements, attributes, and values you will use to tag dates:
-
Element:
<date>
-
Attributes:
@when-custom
,@datingMethod
,@calendar
-
Values:
"mol:julianSic"
,"mol:regnal"
,"mol:r_xml:id"
,"mol:r_xml:id_#"
The Julian calendar was used in England until 1752. In Survey of London, therefore, we must tell the computer that
the dates being tagged are from the Julian calendar:
He died on the
<date when-custom="1417-09-28" calendar="mol:julianSic" datingMethod="mol:julianSic">28 of September in 1417</date>
-
Note that the attribute
@when-custom
is used for the Julian calendar (the attribute@when
is used for the Gregorian calendar, which you will not need to tag Survey of London). -
Note that the value of
@when-custom
is the date mentioned in the text in year-month-day format (YYYY-MM-DD). -
Note that the value of
@calendar
and@datingMethod
is"mol:julianSic"
. There is also"mol:julianMar"
(when the source considers March 25 the start of the new year) and"mol:julianJan"
(when the source considers January 1 the start of the new year). We use"mol:julianSic"
in Survey of London because it is unclear which calendar Stow used.
In 2019, the MoEML team created a new way to tag the reigns of monarchs
and specific years within reigns. This means that in the 1598 Survey of London, regnal dates have been tagged
slightly differently. Use the method below to tag 1633:
In the <date when-custom="r_MARY2" datingMethod="mol:regnal" calendar="mol:regnal">reigne of <name ref="mol:MARY2">Queene
Mary</name></date>
-
Note that the word
the
is not included in the text node. -
Note that the value of
@when-custom
is"r_xml:id"
. Insert the xml:id of the monarch in question (in this case,"MARY2"
). -
Note that the value of
@calendar
and@dathingMethod
is"mol:regnal"
.
To tag a specific year of a reign, add the year after the xml:id:
In the <date when-custom="r_EDWA1_08" datingMethod="mol:regnal" calendar="mol:regnal">eighth of <name ref="mol:EDWA1">Edward the
first</name></date>
-
The value of
@when-custom
is"r_xml:id_#"
. Insert the xml:id of the monarch in question and the year of their reign (in this case,"r_EDWA1_08"
).
For a thorough explanation of how to encode all different types of dates,
see Encode a
Date in Praxis.
¶Tagging Organizations
Tagging organizations is relatively straightforward. The most complicated
part is determining what should/should not be tagged and what
should/should not be part of the text node.
These are the elements, attributes, and values you will use to tag
organizations:
-
Element:
<name>
-
Attributes:
@ref
,@type
-
Values:
"mol:xml:id"
,"org"
Roles/occupations are not tagged:
<name ref="mol:LEOF1">Leafſtanus</name> the Goldſmith
Companies as a whole are tagged:
He was free of
the <name ref="mol:VINT3" type="org">Vintners</name>.
Of Londonis not part of the tag and should be tagged as a location:
The <name ref="mol:META1" type="org">Marchant Taylors</name> of <ref target="mol:LOND5">London</ref>
Most of the organizations Stow mentions in
Survey of London are the Twelve Great
Livery Companies (Mercers, Grocers, Drapers, Fishmongers, Goldsmiths, Skinners, Merchant
Taylors, Haberdashers, Salters,
Ironmongers, Vintners, and Clothworkers). There are also
lesser livery companies. To see the full list, visit the Orgography. Note that organizations can
also be groups (e.g., Black
Friars) or other companies (e.g., East India Company).
¶Tagging Toponyms
Tagging toponyms is one of the most important parts of marking up Survey of London. While the tag itself is not
complicated, it can be difficult to determine certain toponyms because
(1) location names in the early modern period were not standardized, and
(2) some locations have multiple (very different!) names.
Let’s take Arundel House as an example.
Here are just a few of its variant names: Arondell-Howse, Bath House,
Bath Inn, Bath Place, Charterhouse, City-House, Hampton Place, House of
the Bishop of Bath and Wells, Howard House, Inn of the Bishop of Bath
and Wells, Seymour Place.
You are obviously not expected to just
knowthat Arundel House was also called
Bath Innor
Hampton Place—that’s what MoEML is for! Therefore, when you come across a location in the Survey of London, you have a two options:
-
Check previous MoEML editions of Survey of London to see how the location was tagged.
-
Search the Gazetteer for variant names.
These are the elements, attributes, and values you will use to tag
places:
-
Element:
<ref>
-
Attributes:
@target
-
Values:
"mol:xml:id"
The word
theis not included in the text node:
vp by the <ref target="mol:GUIL1">Guildhal</ref>
When
Parishis part of a name, it is included in the text node:
to the <ref target="mol:STAU3">Parish Church of S. Augustine</ref>
Parishescan be locations in themselves:
Messuage in
the <ref target="mol:STOL104">Parish of S. Olave</ref>
Also note that the xml:id of parishes is usually the xml:id of
the church, plus 100 added to the number. For example, the xml:id of
All Hallows the Less is
"ALLH7"
and the xml:id of the parish of All Hallows the Less is "ALLH107"
. The
xml:id of St. John Zachary is
"STJO6"
and the xml:id of the parish of St. John Zachary is "STJO106"
.
¶Tagging People
Like early modern placenames, the names of people in Survey of London can be tricky. While some people are
obvious (e.g.,
king Henry the thirdeis
Henry IIIin our Personography), others are less so (e.g., we currently have six different people named
William Brown(e)in our Personography). Since spelling was not standardized in the early modern period, you often have to rely on contextual clues to determine who Stow is referring to.
Note that, due to early modern spelling variations, it is sometimes
difficult to find the person you are looking for in the A-Z Index. For
example, this is how Henry le Waleys
appears in different sections of Survey of
London:
-
1598 Temporal Government:
Henry Waleys
-
1598 Cheap Ward:
Henry Wales
-
1633 Dowgate Ward:
Henry Wallis
-
1633 Farringdon Within Ward:
H. Wales
If you were to search for
Henry Waleysin the A-Z Index, you would not find his entry because he is listed as
Henry le Waleys.To get around this problem, we recommend that you include many variant spellings of a person’s name in your search. It can also be helpful to search small parts of names (e.g.,
Henryor
Wal) and manually click through the results.
These are the elements, attributes, and values you will use to tag names:
-
Element:
<name>
-
Attributes:
@ref
-
Values:
"mol:xml:id"
Titles (i.e., King, Queen, Sir, Dame, Lord, Lady, etc.) are
included in the text node:
<name ref="mol:HENR7">king Henry the thirde</name>
<name ref="mol:YARF1">Sir Iames Yarforde</name>
Indirect references/pronouns are not tagged (even if we know
who is being referred to):
He dwelled
right againſt the <ref target="mol:GOLD2">Goldſmithes
Hall</ref>.
¶Common Mistakes
Compare these passages from Survey of London to
the examples explained above. Can you tell what should be fixed?
Question 1:
<p><name ref="mol:WITT1">Robert Wittingham</name>
<name ref="mol:DRAP3" type="org">Draper</name> laide the thirde ſtone, <name ref="mol:BART5">Henry Barton</name> then Maior.</p>
Answer: In this passage, <name ref="mol:DRAP3" type="org">Draper</name> laide the thirde ſtone, <name ref="mol:BART5">Henry Barton</name> then Maior.</p>
Draperrefers to the occupation of Robert Wittingham and should not be tagged.
<p><name ref="mol:WITT1">Robert Wittingham</name> Draper laide the
thirde ſtone, <name ref="mol:BART5">Henry Barton</name> then
Maior.</p>
Question 2:
<p>Lower downe from this pariſh church bee diuers fayre houſes
namely one wherein of late Sir <name ref="mol:BAKE9">Richard
Baker</name> a knight of Kent was lodged, and one wherein
dwelled maiſter <name ref="mol:GORE2">Thomas Gore</name> a
marchant famous for Hoſpitality.</p>
Answer: Sirshould be included in the text node.
<p>Lower downe from this pariſh church bee diuers fayre houſes
namely one wherein of late <name ref="mol:BAKE9">Sir Richard
Baker</name> a knight of Kent was lodged, and one wherein
dwelled maiſter <name ref="mol:GORE2">Thomas Gore</name> a
marchant famous for Hoſpitality.</p>
Question 3:
<p>One the moſt ancient houſe in this lane is called the <ref target="mol:LEAD3">leaden porch</ref>, and belonged ſomtime
to <name ref="mol:MERS1">Sir Iohn Merſton</name> knight: <date when-custom="r_EDWA3_01" datingMethod="mol:regnal" calendar="mol:regnal">the 1. of <name ref="mol:EDWA6">Edward
the 4</name></date>.</p>
Answer: The word theshould not be included in the text node and the value
"r_EDWA3_01"
is
incorrect in the <date>
element (i.e., "EDWA3"
should be
"EDWA6"
).
<p>One the moſt ancient houſe in this lane is called the <ref target="mol:LEAD3">leaden porch</ref>, and belonged ſomtime
to <name ref="mol:MERS1">Sir Iohn Merſton</name> knight: the
<date when-custom="r_EDWA6_01" datingMethod="mol:regnal" calendar="mol:regnal">1. of <name ref="mol:EDWA6">Edward the
4</name></date>.</p>
Question 4:
<p>Then is <name ref="mol:ABCH1">Abchurch lane</name>, which is
on both the ſides, almoſt wholly of this ward.</p>
Answer: Since Abchurch laneis a location, it should be tagged with
<ref>
and @target
, not
<name>
and @ref
.
<p>Then is
<ref target="mol:ABCH1">Abchurch lane</ref>, which is on
both the ſides, almoſt wholly of this ward.</p>
The more time you spend tagging Survey of
London, the better you will become at noticing mistakes. We
encourage you to refer back to the examples in this document as you
work. Before you know it, the rules listed above will become habit.
¶Part III: Adding Organizations, Toponyms, and People
Once you feel comfortable marking up Survey of London,
the next thing to learn is how to add new organizations, toponyms, and people to
the MoEML database.
¶Adding Organizations to ORGS1.xml
When you come across an organization that is not in the A-Z Index, you will
need to add it to ORGS1.xml, MoEML’s Orgography file. For a quick
explanation of how to add many different types of organizations to
ORGS1.xml, see Website
and Document Structure in Praxis.
Since the Twelve Great Livery Companies have already been added to ORGS1.xml,
you will only be adding lesser livery companies and other early modern
organizations and offices. One thing to note is that the sequence of entries
in ORGS1.xml is rendered as it is encoded, which means that (1) entries must
be added to the correct section of ORGS1.xml, and (2) entries must be added
in alphabetical order.
¶Lesser Livery Companies
Lesser livery companies have very standardized entries. They are added
alphabetically under the
Lesser Livery Companiesheader:
<org xml:id="BAKE4" type="lesser">
<orgName>Worshipful Company of Bakers<reg>Bakers’ Company</reg></orgName>
<note><p>The <name type="org" ref="mol:BAKE4">Bakers’ Company</name> was one of the lesser livery companies of <ref target="mol:LOND5">London</ref>. The <name type="org" ref="mol:BAKE4">Worshipful Company of Bakers</name> is still active and maintains a website at <ref target="http://www.bakers.co.uk//">http://www.bakers.co.uk//</ref> that includes a <ref target="http://www.bakers.co.uk/A-Brief-History.aspx">history of the company</ref>.</p></note>
</org>

¶Other Early Modern Organizations and Offices
If an organization is not a (1) great livery company, (2) playing
company, or (3) lesser livery comapny, it goes under the
Other Early Modern Organizations and Officesheader. While these entries are largely unstandardized, each begins with
The [Name of Company]and is written in complete sentences (unlike PERS1.xml entries which are written in fragments):

¶Adding Toponyms
¶Adding People to PERS1.xml
When you come across a person who is not in the A-Z Index, you will need to
add them to PERS1.xml, MoEML’s Personagraphy file. For a thorough
explanation of how to add many different types of people to PERS1.xml, see
Encode
Persons in Praxis.
Below, we have broken down entries that are particularly common in Survey of London. Unlike ORGS1.xml, PERS1.xml is
programmatically rendered in alphabetical order. Because of this, for ease,
add new entries to the end of the document.
¶Lord Mayors and Sheriffs
Lord mayors and sheriffs have very standardized entries. One of the most
helpful resources for information on these figures is Mayors and Sheriffs of London (MASL). The MASL database includes the names, years of office, and livery company
membership of London’s mayors, sheriffs, and wardens.
When writing an entry for a lord mayor, include their years as sheriff
(if applicable), years as mayor, livery company membership, and any
additional information that appears in Survey of
London such as their family members or place of
burial:

"CHIC4"
: this value is Sir Robert Chichele’s xml:id. -
@sex
: the value"1"
is used for males and the value"2"
is used for females. -

<reg>
Sir Robert Chichele
</reg>
: the person’s full name, including titles (Sir, Dame, etc.), goes here. Since spelling was not standardized in the early modern period, choosing the spelling of the name can be difficult.

¶Families
Stow enjoys listing all the members of a
person’s family (below is an
extremeexample). Family entries often take a bit of time because the entries of all family members need to be updated. For example, let’s pretend that in the 1598 Survey of London, Joane is said to be married to Robert Dunne. Then by the 1633 edition, she has also married Richard Stoneley, John Branche, and has had more children. Not only will you have to potentially add new people (husbands and children) to PERS1.xml, but you will have to check if any of the people already exist, and, if so, update their entries:
<person xml:id="BRAN13" sex="2">
<persName type="hist">
<reg>Joane Branche (née Wylkynson)</reg>
<forename>Joane</forename>
<surname>Wylkynson</surname>
<surname>Branche</surname>
<surname>Dunne</surname>
<surname>Stoneley</surname>
</persName>
<note><p>Wife of <name ref="mol:DUNN3">Robert Dunne</name>, <name ref="mol:STON15">Richard Stoneley</name>, and <name ref="mol:BRAN4">John Branche</name>. Mother of <name ref="mol:BRAN12">Anne Branche</name>, <name ref="mol:DUNN4">Sir Daniel Dunne</name>, <name ref="mol:DUNN5">Samuel Dunne</name>, <name ref="mol:DUNN6">William Dunne</name>, <name ref="mol:DANT2">Dorothie Dauntrey</name>, and <name ref="mol:HIGH7">Anne Higham</name>.

</note>
</person>
-
née Wylkynson
: in the text, we learn that Joane is the daughter of John Wylkynson and is the wife of Robert Dunne, Richard Stoneley, and John Branche. We have given her the last nameBranche
because he was her last husband (theoretically, she likely died asJoane Branche
). Since we know her father’s name wasWylkynson,
we include(née Wylkynson)
in the<reg>
. As you can see above, all of Joane’s surnames are also individually tagged with<surname>
. See Encode Persons for a full explanation ofnée
and<surname>
. -
Dorothie Dauntrey
andAnne Higham
: note thatDorothie Dauntrey
andAnne Higham
are listed as their<reg>
names and not asDorothie Branche
andAnne Branche.
¶Member of a Livery Company
Often all Stow includes about a person is
their name and occupation, which is often the livery company they
belonged to:
<person xml:id="BART14" sex="1">
<persName type="hist">
<reg>William Barton</reg>
<forename>William</forename>
<surname>Barton</surname>
</persName>
<note><p>Member of the <name type="org" ref="mol:MERC3">Mercers’ Company</name>. Buried at <ref target="mol:STLA5">St. Laurence, Jewry</ref>.</p>

<surname>Barton</surname>
</persName>
<note><p>Member of the <name type="org" ref="mol:MERC3">Mercers’ Company</name>. Buried at <ref target="mol:STLA5">St. Laurence, Jewry</ref>.</p>
</note>
</person>
-
Buried at
: to document a place of burial, writeBuried at
and the location’s name from the A-Z Index (i.e., the title of the location’s page).
¶Unknown Person
Sometimes there is very little information on a person. In these cases,
we say
Denizen of London(if we at least know that):
<person xml:id="NORM9" sex="1">
<persName type="hist">
<reg>John Norman</reg>
<forename>John</forename>
<surname>Norman</surname>
</persName>
<note><p>Denizen of <ref target="mol:LOND5">London</ref>. Not to be confused with <name ref="mol:NORM1">Sir John Norman</name> or <name ref="mol:NORM6">John Norman</name>.</p>
</note>
</person>
In the example above, find:
<persName type="hist">
<reg>John Norman</reg>
<forename>John</forename>
<surname>Norman</surname>
</persName>
<note><p>Denizen of <ref target="mol:LOND5">London</ref>. Not to be confused with <name ref="mol:NORM1">Sir John Norman</name> or <name ref="mol:NORM6">John Norman</name>.</p>
</note>
</person>
-
Not to be confused with
: if there are multiple people with the same name, it is helpful to addNot to be confused with.
This is also how we clear the diagnostic errorPossible duplicate personography entries.
If we know nothing about a person, we add this boilerplate text:
<person xml:id="MALV1" sex="1">
<persName type="hist">
<reg>John Malverne</reg>
<forename>John</forename>
<surname>Malverne</surname>
</persName>
<note><p>MoEML has not yet added biographical content for this person. The editors welcome research leads from qualified individuals. Please <ref target="mailto:london@uvic.ca">contact us</ref> for further information.</p>

<note><p>MoEML has not yet added biographical content for this person. The editors welcome research leads from qualified individuals. Please <ref target="mailto:london@uvic.ca">contact us</ref> for further information.</p>
</note>
</person>
¶Possibly the same person?
Sometimes it is hard to tell whether two people are the same. For
example, maybe you come across
John Skinnerin your ward, but there is not enough information to know that he matches the
John Skinneralready present in PERS1.xml. In this case, we add
Possibly the same person asso readers know to look at both entries:
<person xml:id="SKIN8" sex="1">
<persName type="hist">
<reg>John Skinner</reg>
<forename>John</forename>
<surname>Skinner</surname>
</persName>
<note><p>Son of <name ref="mol:SKIN4">Sir Thomas Skinner</name>. Possibly the same person as <name ref="mol:SKIN7">John Skinner</name>.</p>
</note>
</person>
<persName type="hist">
<reg>John Skinner</reg>
<forename>John</forename>
<surname>Skinner</surname>
</persName>
<note><p>Son of <name ref="mol:SKIN4">Sir Thomas Skinner</name>. Possibly the same person as <name ref="mol:SKIN7">John Skinner</name>.</p>
</note>
</person>
¶Latin Epitaphs
Beware: if Stow walks into a church in the
1633 Survey of London, he will interrupt his
narrative to copy down pages of latin epitaphs. If a person only appears
in a latin epitaph, we add
Latin epitaph in Stow 1633to the end of their biographical statement:
<note><p>Rector of <ref target="mol:STNI3">St. Nicholas Olave</ref>.
Buried at <ref target="mol:STNI3">St. Nicholas Olave</ref>.
Latin epitaph in Stow 1633.</p>

¶Common Mistakes
Compare these biographical statements to the examples explained above and
examples in Encode
Persons. Can you tell what should be fixed?
Question 1:
<p>Recipient of a tower by <ref target="mol:BAYN1">Baynard’s
Castle</ref>, given by <name ref="mol:EDWA3">king Edward the
thirde</name> in the <date when-custom="r_EDWA3_02" datingMethod="mol:regnal" calendar="mol:regnal">second year
of his reign</date>.</p>
Answer: king Edward the thirdeshould be modernized to
Edward III(whenever someone is mentioned in PERS1.xml, their
<reg>
name is used).
<p>Recipient of a tower by <ref target="mol:BAYN1">Baynard’s
Castle</ref>, given by <name ref="mol:EDWA3">Edward
III</name> in the <date when-custom="r_EDWA3_02" datingMethod="mol:regnal" calendar="mol:regnal">second year
of his reign</date>.</p>
Question 2:
<p>Wife of <name ref="mol:DANI10">John Daniel</name> and mother of
<name ref="mol:DANI11">Gerard Daniel</name>. Buried at <ref target="mol:STMA16">St. Margaret Moses</ref>.</p>
Answer: When listing family members, every relation should
start a new sentence.
<p>Wife of <name ref="mol:DANI10">John Daniel</name>. Mother of
<name ref="mol:DANI11">Gerard Daniel</name>. Buried at <ref target="mol:STMA16">St. Margaret Moses</ref>.</p>
Question 3:

Church of St. Mildred Bread Street</ref> in <date when-custom="1419" datingMethod="mol:julianSic" calendar="mol:julianSic">1419</date>.</p>
Answer: When mentioning a location in a biographical statement,
use its name from the A-Z Index (i.e., the title of the location’s page)
for consistency.
<p>Founder of a chantry at <ref target="mol:STIM9">St. Mildred,
Bread Street</ref> in <date when-custom="1419" datingMethod="mol:julianSic" calendar="mol:julianSic">1419</date>.</p>
