改动记录
一部辞典要看它没有收什么。这里记录收了什么、撤下了什么,以及为什么这样决定。
- 新增新增 51 条
- 新增Added 32 screen styles. The dictionary was thick on paper and objects and had almost nothing on the first half of the history of screens, from the Apple Desktop Interface of 1987 to Windows 95, HyperCard, Minitel and the Winamp skin.
- 修正Stopped the compose page handing ChatGPT a URL that does not exist. It had been joining two entry ids into one and asking for a spec page that was never there.
- 撤下Dropped eight entries that no institution, archive or signed article could account for. They came from trend pieces that had coined a name, and two of them named a subject rather than a style.
- 修正Re-sourced 42 of the founding 50 entries. All fifty had cited the same single article, which put a school of design and a coinage from a trend piece on equal footing.
- 移动Cut the families from 164 to 82. Families holding a single entry went from 63 to 2.
- 撤下Removed Motion as a kind, and later removed Motion Graphics as an entry. Both name a medium rather than a style.
- 新增Filled nineteen conspicuous gaps. Impressionism was missing while six movements defined against it were already here.
- 修正Rewrote entry no.8 as Web Brutalism. Its source, its images and its further reading were all about architecture, which another entry already covers.
- 修正Gave every entry its own Best used for, Composition recipe and What to avoid. Until now many carried the same placeholder sentences, which made the dictionary unusable as a reference.
- 修正Reconciled 101 entries where the Japanese and the English said different things. Since the other five languages are translated from the Japanese, a split original would have multiplied the error fivefold.
- 建设Translated the body of every entry into Spanish, French, German, Chinese and Korean. Until now those editions carried a translated summary above an English body.
- 建设Added 903 comparison pages, one for each pair the dictionary itself calls related, plus fourteen pairs that readers mix up precisely because they are not related.
- 建设Added a way to put several styles together, which assigns each one a role instead of averaging them, and says where they will fight.
- 修正Reviewed every reference gallery by eye. Entries now showing three real works went from 384 to 474.
- 移动Moved three marbling techniques and the proofreading marks out of type classification, where they had no business being.
- 新增新增 362 条
- 建设Published the site.
- 建设Added editions in Spanish, French, German, Chinese and Korean, alongside English and Japanese.
- 修正Replaced the reference images of the founding entries. They had been hotlinking a moodboard from someone else's article rather than showing real works.
- 撤下Folded away the chronology pages. The entries in them that stand as styles were promoted into the dictionary proper.
- 建设Opened the machine surfaces: an MCP endpoint, a JSON API, a design spec and an image prompt per entry.
- 新增新增 75 条
- 新增新增 53 条
- 建设Started the dictionary.
