Make sure the source is an attribute on title, looks like it is in the text node after it instead

source should be an attribute, i.e. before the > of the date element's opening tag

The idno in the body/bibl element should be for the conceptual work, so shouldn't have the /tei in it. Remember, the teiHeader is for the XML document, whose identifier/URI is .../tei, but the body is for the conceptual entity

There is a typo where the abstract (note element) starts with "AThe", I assume it should be "The"?

Careful of "https" vs "http", Syriaca URIs should be "http"

I think we probably want to delete this relation? Maybe the title on line 115 should go up in line 109?
