Abstract
The Internet Shakespeare Editions (ISE) were founded in 1996, with a mission to make Shakespeare's works freely available in scholarly, multimedia, Internet editions. This article discusses the three main areas in which the ISE publishes: the texts themselves, records of performance and the context of Shakespeare's life and the social and intellectual climate of the time. Both opportunities and challenges are presented by the new medium: the encyclopaedic depth of data means that there is a need for intuitive signals to permit navigation between text, facsimile, annotation and performance; there is a need for data structures that will not render scholarly work obsolete over time; there is an opportunity to record some of the variety of Shakespeare on stage and film, but there are difficulties in dealing with issues of copyright. In the future, the site will become more interactive as, for example, visitors will be able to record reviews of current productions of the plays.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
