QUESTIONS: edit

  • properties like author (P50), editor (P98), genre (P136) should be inherited from work to edition?
  • the problem of "editions of an edition". For example, what to do with:
    • a translation based on another translation?
    • multiple editions of a translation?
  • edition naming: books with a lot of editions will make a lot of items with the same name.

Ideas edit

  • (?) Automatically add items about work expressions as soon as a manifestation with that expression is added (e.g. when is added an italian translation of a book, automatically add an item about the italian expression of that book and link that manifestation to that expression):
    • It will increase the compatibility with FRBR but maybe it isn't necessary because such an item would probably be useless
