good to add dates

[edit]

It would be good to add dates to all the entries in the list of significant psalters, and arrange them in date order. Or maybe this should become a category? seglea 17:38, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed category renaming: Psalters to Illuminated psalters

[edit]

This will enable the articles on printed psalters etc to go in a recreated Category:Psalters, whilst the great majority of the existing category, which are articles on individual illuminated MS, stay in the renamed category, as a sub-category of Illuminated manuscripts. The proposal is being discussed at CfD here Your opinions are invited - Johnbod 23:53, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Coptic section

[edit]

I added a section on Coptic psalters, although really I know very little about them - only that the Mudil Psalter wasn't on this page and there wasn't really anywhere to put it. I've now exhausted what I know about the topic, so hopefully someone else can pick up here.Alexiskai (talk) 08:40, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

3 main divisions of Psalms, or 5?

[edit]

Article says, " Historiated initials or full-page illuminations were also used to mark the beginnings of the three major divisions of the Psalms," - what is the reliable source for that claim? All the Bibles I have ever observed on this have 5 (not 3) major divisions (Books 1-5). I am deleting the 3. (AltheaCase (talk) 19:47, 16 April 2023 (UTC))[reply]
