Die Ankündigung:
The MOMAthon is …
… an online event in which many people interested in historical documents all around the world help to enhance the world’s largest database of medieval and early modern charters.
Monasterium.net contains many documents with incomplete description: There are documents with automatically created descriptions which contain errors and documents missing an indication of a machine readable date. Furthermore there are often only short descriptions but no transcriptions.
The Tasks
With the MOMAthon we would like to ask you for help with the two following tasks, one of them easily to be accomplished by everybody (1), and one for those with a deeper interest in charters, e.g. together with a university teacher (2).
- Add dates to document descriptions we extracted from Google Books scans
- Add full descriptions and transcriptions to documents with restricted data.
Win a membership
The user with the most amendments to monasterium.net has proven to be a true enthusiast. Therefore ICARUS4all, the associations of friends of monasterium.net, will include the winner into its ranks and grant a one year membership free of charge.
