Incorrect IDs and datetime attributes
acabal opened this issue · comments
@robinwhittleton I was correcting some lint errors in chapter 19 when I noticed that the article IDs appeared to be misdated, and the datetime attributes on the <time> elements were also misdated. I corrected chapter 19 but when looking at chapter 18 I noticed the same problem. For example chapter 18 line 92, the article id is entry-1661-7-8 and the datetime attribute is 1661-07-08 but the entry appears to be for June 28, not July 8. Am I missing something or is this incorrect?
If this is an issue, note that anchors in endnotes may also have to be fixed. This might get complicated!
This is Gregorian vs Julian dating as far as I can remember. I added some production notes about it:
• Each diary entry has a time element to start. The datetime attribute is ISO8601 compliant (Gregorian), but the actual dates Pepys uses are Julian, so they don’t appear to match. This is correct.
• This date is copied into theentry-xid attribute for each diary entry. Unfortunately, this causes linting to fail with leading 0 errors, so we remove those for the id.
Aha, I figured something was up. Should have read the production notes first! I'll undo the "fix" commit.
No problem. It foxed me at the time; istr I wrote a script to generate the dates from the originals?
