PeriodO

Public Group active 4 years, 6 months ago

A group for the discussion of the PeriodO Linked Data gazetteer of period definitions. Feel free to ask questions, offer to contribute periodizations, flag bugs, and raise any other issues, practical or theoretical, relevant to this attempt to provide some structure for period usage in data and metadata in archaeology and beyond.

The main project website is http://perio.do, and you can find the most current version of the dataset at http://test.perio.do.

    Feel free to download a local test collection and send it to me, if you want some feedback before you submit a patch! Actually, you or anyone else could upload a file downloaded from PeriodO to the Docs section of this forum, either to share local periodizations or to solicit feedback. That might also help energize the forum itself.

    And finally, the most specific questions.

    PeriodO interface questions:
    (based on the Guide page)

    1) Is there an “add data” or “add period” link?

    I think you’re wondering about adding collections and definitions. To do this locally, create an Indexed Database on the Select Backend page and follow the instructions above. The “add collect…[Read more]

    I will respond to the individual questions one by one below.

    Data collection questions:
    1) One of my periods (Middle Byzantine) is already in PeriodO, but I want to cite it as coming from a particular published source. Do I make a new entry for Middle Byzantine? Or could I add Cyril Mango to the already-published Middle Byzantine period entry…[Read more]

    Thanks very much for the questions, @ByzCapp, and for kicking off what I hope will be a much longer discussion. I apologize for the ridiculous lateness of the response, and I’ll try to keep the conversation on a hotter boil moving forward. I’ll answer your overall question here, and then answer the other two categories in separate…[Read more]

    Hi, all. I’m inaugurating the PeriodO group with a series of questions that I hope will be helpful for other newbies as well. I generally understand the Guide from a technical perspective, but I am having a hard time using the Guide to make a contribution. Adam, you mentioned a while back that you’re working on documentation. So my hope is tha…[Read more]
