In the transcripts there will occur signs and symbols which signify special relations in the original source or the electronically registered version: ?? signifies that the handwriting in the original is indistinct or illegible (e.g. 'Kristi??') @ is used as a separator between two alternative readings of the original when it is impossible to decide which is the correct one (e.g. 'Even@Sven') % indicates stricken out text in the source. If a word or a sentence is stricken out it is marked with a % in front and behind the stricken out word (e.g. 'Peder%Hans%') !! siginifies that this information in the source must be wrong for obvious reasons (!! alone in a field means that the information is missing) | |||
