Looking for help from German speaker
I have found two author records in the PG catalog that should probably be combined, but I'd like a German speaker to help confirm that. Is the author of PG#15891, Velimirovitch, Nicola, the same person as Velimirovic, Nikolai? Description of this author can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolai_Velimirovi%C4%87 http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolaj_Velimirovi%C4%87 Thanks, Andrew

I think we can assume its the same person. "Bis 1908 studierte er an der altkatholischen Fakultät der Universität Bern, wo er die Doktorwürde in Philosophie erlangte." He studied philosophy in Berne until 1908, where he took his degree. -- Marcello Perathoner webmaster@gutenberg.org
Thanks Marcello. My first thought was to send this question deirectly to you, but I thought I'd send it out as a general request instead as you might be rather busy already. No, I will not "assume" that these two are the same. Making assumptions is not a good idea in this kind of case. If there is uncertainty, I would say leave them separate. I take it the line you quote below does give further evidence of this person's identity? Andrew On Mon, 12 Sep 2005, Marcello Perathoner wrote:

The title page of one of the books declares it to be a doctoral dissertation by Dr. Whatshisname, Berne 1910. Wikipedia says this guy actually studied in Berne around that date, the names are very similar, and the topic of the dissertation is Serbia ... I think we can safely assume it is the same person.

He's the same, the peolple from DP-EU/Rastko should be much more familair with him and how to spel his name correctely. Frank
Thanks Marcello.

Thanks all for your replies. My attention came to this author as one name I might want to add to the catalog in cyrillic. Frank's comment below reminds me of one my ideas that I have "to return to at some future point". Often the people involved in digitizing a particular text have additional knowledge that would be nice to have to have associated with the text in some way, that would be of value for catalogers. Any additional ideas along this line? Andrew On Tue, 13 Sep 2005, Frank van Drogen wrote:

The DP-EU description lists his name as Nikolaj Velimirović, ep. (1880-1956), and I seem to recall the project notes listed him as a Serbian bishop.
