- 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
- Kangxi 22, 癸亥, intercalary sixth lunar month, 戊午
- 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 qing007.wikitext heading at line 36 and full line 48 with lines 46–52. calendar_headers gives sinica-1682-12-31.html: Gregorian 1682-12-31 = Kangxi 21, 壬戌, month 12 day 3; sinica-1683-12-31.html: Gregorian 1683-12-31 = Kangxi 22, 癸亥, month 11 day 14. These place Kangxi 22 intercalary month 6 within civil AD 1683, also 1683 in Julian reckoning. Original quotation begins at line 48, character 1770.
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.
