Talk:Karl Widemann

The Voynich Manuscript link
There is no obvious connection between Widemann having sold books to Rudolph II and one of those books being what is now called the VM: and Widemann would have been one of many 'sellers of interesting items.' Jackiespeel (talk) 21:28, 24 October 2017 (UTC)
 * The source here lists his name as someone who sold books to Rudolph (among others). So it is at least a plausibility, also since there is a connection to Kelley and Dee. The sale took place years after working for Kelley. And because he was someone who collected manuscripts. prokaryotes (talk) 22:59, 24 October 2017 (UTC)
 * The heading implies a stronger degree of certainty than the text appears to justify - he sold books to Rudolph, and may thus have handled the VM' would be more in line with WP practices. Jackiespeel (talk) 09:09, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Helps non linear readers, WP is not a manuscript. prokaryotes (talk) 11:39, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
 * While I can see the connection, it could be a little less implicit. Jackiespeel (talk) 22:46, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
