Motivation[edit]

Mirabile is a semi-open database created by the Società Internazionale per lo Studio del Medioevo Latino (SISMEL): the data is extremely good, based on major publishing projects spanning over the last several decades. There are a number of medieval manuscripts in Wikidata, but nothing systematic, and this would be a great place to start. AndrewNJ (talk) 15:55, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
