Introduction

The purpose of Verse-by-Verse Notes is to present the Layer-by-Layer exegetical materials in a verse-by-verse format. The notes and visuals for Verse-by-Verse Notes represent a compilation of notes and visuals made at the various layers. Thus, creating the Verse-by-Verse Notes requires mostly the (re)organization and editing of existing content and not the creation of new content.

Steps

1. Setting up the page

• Log in to the wiki and create a new page for the Verse-by-Verse notes. The page should be titled "Psalm # Verse-by-Verse" and the # sign replaced with the number of your psalm. To create a page with this tile, type "Psalm # Verse-by-Verse" into the "Search" bar. When given the option to "Create the page "Psalm # Verse-by-Verse" on this wiki!" click the link ("Psalm # Verse-by-Verse").
• Copy the following text and paste it onto the new page.

{{Verse-by-Verse Welcome|Chapter=#}}

• In the copied/pasted text, replace all # signs with the number of your psalm.
• Add a new section and new sub-sections for each verse in your psalm (e.g., ===v. 1===). Note that the copied/pasted text includes only one heading for one verse ("v. 1"). Copy this heading and all of the content under this heading (including the sub-headings "Expanded Paraphrase", "Grammatical Diagram", and "Notes") and paste it as many times as is necessary to include all the verses in your psalm. Be sure to change to numbers to reflect the correct verse numbers.

2. Expanded paraphrase and Grammatical diagram

Each verse should include an expanded paraphrase and a grammatical diagram with phrase-level glosses.

• For the expanded paraphrase, go to the wiki page "Story Behind the Psalm" for your psalm, click "Edit" to see the page's code, copy the expanded paraphrase of each verse, and paste each copied portion of text into the relevant section on the new page.
• For the grammatical diagram with phrase-level glosses, go to the wiki page "Semantics" for your psalm, click "Edit" to see the page's code, copy the code for the image under each verse (e.g., [[File:Psalm 8 - v.2 semantics.jpg|class=img-fluid|825px]]) and paste each copied portion of text into the relevant section on the new page.

3. Importing Notes

• Gather all of the notes that you have written for your psalm; copy them and paste them into the relevant sections on the wiki page. Be sure to check your work on each layer for any notes you might have written.
• Each note should constitute its own bullet-point in the Verse-by-Verse Notes.
• Some notes may not be confined to a single verse (e.g., notes about larger poetic structures, patterns in repeated roots, etc.). Choose the most appropriate verse in which to include each note. For example, if the note is about a repeated root, you might include the note in the verse where the root first occurs.

4. Organising notes
