Following up, thank you so much to Tyler and Dominik for showing how to make the database navigable again. I was in a panic when the wiki began to 404.
A question I have that I hope those who showed how to make the database available again is: is there a way to search for words that appear in the entry, but not the title? For example, if I want to see what colophons have the word "bhikṣunī", on the original wiki I could search the word and all mss with the searched term in their catalog entry would populate in the search results. I cannot figure out if this is now possible. This ( https://catalogue.ngmcp.uni-hamburg.de/content/search/ngmcpdocument.xed) seems the most promising place to do so, but I have not had any luck in my attempts so far. Thank you again for making the database available! Sam On Fri, Jul 18, 2025 at 4:34 AM Jonathan Silk via INDOLOGY < [email protected]> wrote: > confirmed! Thank you Tim!
