[QUOTE="cmezner, post: 8423067, member: 87809"]I made a short exploration of the Syrios Project. Some suggestions/observations: When Browsing items at [URL]https://sites.lib.uh.edu/kmneuma2/items/browse[/URL] The first two coins name the emperor, but several of the following ones use “of” which seems unnecessary. Consistency is important. I did one search, obviously for Augustus, 31 Items were found. However, surprisingly some of the results were not coins, e.g. Damascus, Zeugma etc. which just tells me that the selection algorithm maybe needs some corrections. Looking at this one [URL]https://sites.lib.uh.edu/kmneuma2/items/show/1710[/URL] I see that the type description omits important details, e.g. radiate for the head of Augustus and laureate for Tiberius, details that in my opinion are important. No weights are given for any of the coins of Augustus I looked at. Weight is so important Missing space between ObverseType here [URL]https://sites.lib.uh.edu/kmneuma2/items/show/1704[/URL] and on some other entries. Consistency is important What is the difference between the entry Date and From Date To Date ? Some are the same and some not, a reader must try to figure this out.. Some titles are confusing: e.g. ANTIOCH BRONZE COIN OF REPUBLIC TO AUGUSTUS I can guess what it means, but it looks strane and you can't have a user guessing, she/he will probably not like it. Ok, I'll stop criticizing and tell you what I liked most, please don't take my critique badly. I like every much the "Tell me a Story Tab" and the stories one can read. Really nice, congrats to the team.[/QUOTE]
