Signs Deleted in Correction Seen by Earlier Editors

Signs deleted in an ancient correction that were seen and recorded by earlier editors, but are no longer visible on the support.

Syntax

Any notation of a phenomenon (IbiUnit) allowed within PreviousSeen, thus enclosed between low lines _…_ to indicate previous observation, followed by an equal sign and a greater-than sign forming a => arrow, then by the added text notation, all enclosed between plus signs +…+. Optional metadata can be written before the final + delimiter.

See Ancient Corrections for the automatic rectification performed by the formatter to improve legibility.

  • 𝘏 = identifier sign of the hand (if specified in the optional annotations/metadata ¤ᵟ).
  • ⊙ ∈ PREVIOUS_SEEN_ALLOWED = any phenomena allowed within PreviousSeen (notation, AST or rendering depending on its placement).
  • ‽ᵟ ∈ {?, !, ε} = uncertainty marker ?, certainty marker !, or empty string (ε).
  • γ ∈ {Low, High, Medium} = certainty level corresponding to the marker used in the notation.
  • ◇ᵟ ∈ {⯑, ⯁, ε} = rendering of the uncertainty/certainty marker in the notation or empty string (ε).
  • ¤ᵟ = optional annotations (metadata) supported by Correction (cf. Ancient Corrections).
