Schaff-Herzog

PeterR's picture

I've said this before elsewhere, but I think it would be helpful to have article names in Schaff-Herzog this way: "Lancelot Andrewes" and not just this way "Andrewes, Lancelot".

The "Lancelot Andrewes" way should be in the name of the article, i.e.
http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/encyclopedia/Lancelot_Andrewes
NOT
http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/encyc01.html?term=Andrewes,%20Lancelot

and also the page title should be:
Lancelot Andrewes | New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge, Vol. I: Aachen - Basilians | Christian Classics Ethereal Library
NOT
New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge, Vol. I: Aachen - Basilians | Christian Classics Ethereal Library

A separate suggestion: I would love Schaff Herzog to be in Media-Wiki format; one could restrict editing to approved people as in Theopedia http://www.theopedia.com/ and there could be a section at the bottom of each page "Extra Information: additional material from sources outside the Schaff-Herzog Encyclopaedia" which would allow for additional and later material to be added by registered editors. Another advantage of Media-Wiki would be that people interested in particular articles could type them up, and it is in a familiar format for the vast number of Wikipedians.

Best wishes

New Schaff-Herzog Encyclopedia of Religious Knowledge...

Peace Be With You,

It would be really nice if ALL of the 13 Volumes, were as nice to read and use as Volumes 1,2 & 9. The remaining volumes (3-8 & 11,12) are poorly scanned and unreadable in most cases.

Text like the first couple of the Volumes in perferably PDF or HTML files would be very useful and much appreciated.

I would even donate some $$$ to make them availiable for ALL to use...are there any other patrons willing to antiy up for this very much needed update?

May the Peace of Christ be with You,
Louis
