Editing Main Page (section)

== Conventions ==

The Hebrew text (right column) should reflect the text as appears in the manuscript:
*No additional punctuation marks are inserted, but line breaks are used to separate sentences.
*Text in <sup>superscript</sup> represents additions above the manuscript lines
*Struck-through <s>text</s> represents text in the manuscript with deletion marks
*Corrections, additions and comments in the margins of manuscripts are marked by references, preceded by the abbreviation: "marg."

The translation and commentary (left column) include interpretive elements:
*Headings that reflect the content of the text, but are not stated by the author are written in green.
*Mathematical formalization should reflect the procedure described in the text while avoiding anachronism as much as possible (although some anachronism is inevitable). The general procedures are in green, the demonstrations in blue and errors are marked in red. The translation is not always complete, literal or up to contemporary standards of translations of scientific sources.

If the text has survived in a single manuscript, the numbers of the pages are noted in the text.

The metadata includes the following details (where available): date of birth and place of birth of author, date of death and place of death of the author, the date and place of composition. 

The list of bibliographical items includes only the items that specifically deal with the text. If the text is a translation or a commentary, we do not include bibliographical items that concern the original.

Where available, we include links to manuscript sources. However, these may change, resulting in broken links.
