Abbreviations and short references
Built from the abbreviations as they occur and reviewed by hand. Sources and bibliography stay as printed in the English, and a program adds the expansion after the first use; general Latin abbreviations are translated (→). Basis: standard; context = from the passage; general knowledge = likely, not checked in a catalogue; guess = check.
