Spelling

[edit]

V to U

[edit]

Change V to U, e.g. in Vse (Page:Petty 1647 Advice to Hartlib.djvu/3). --Dick Bos (talk) 08:32, 3 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Long s

[edit]

I propose not to use the long s (template) when transcribing the text, for three reasons:

  1. while editing, it's a lot easier to use the modern s.
  2. nowadays readers who are interested in the content of the texts will find it easier to read the modern s.
  3. searchability.
