What this does and does not establish
Office of the Historian travel register, trip 2743; table and XML agree. The dates bound the visit, without dating individual conference proceedings.
- Region
- Europe
- Theme
- Politics and institutions
- Kind of record
- Placed in a year. A source places this in one year. It is listed under that year; no day precision is invented.
How it is dated
- Date reference
- 1955-07-16 to 1955-07-23
- How we use it
- Year-level placement is limited to the dated source entry.
The date reference is this project’s reading of the source’s date. It may give an era name, a reign or a calendar in a normalised form rather than in the source’s own words; the dating notes say what the source prints.
Dating notes from the research record
Read tripvisits05.txt, line 1, and travel-eisenhower-dwight-d.xml, lines 60–74. The explicit civil dates 1955-07-16 and 1955-07-23 both map to AD 1955; the 2010 creation and modification timestamps are metadata. Original quotation begins at line 1, character 79.
File names and line numbers in these notes, and in the limits above, refer to the project’s retained copies of the cited sources. Names such as calendar_headers are the project’s calendar look-ups, and “the investigator” is the research step that prepared the record.
Sources and quoted text
Line and character numbers under “Location” refer to the project’s retained copy of the source. For database rows, “Edition” names the batch of rows that was fetched together.
