Custom passage guide by denomination?

I would like to build a custom passage guide and have multiple collections in it such as Baptist, Pentecostal, Reformed? This way I could see the multiple views on a particular passage.

I checked the public docs for such collections but didn't see any. I am willing to build them, but I don't know if there is any data built into sets already???

Any suggestions?

Bruce Dunning has created an extensive tagging system which includes theology/denomination:

And then there's Andrew Baguley's spreadsheet categorizing authors by denomination, which one could use as a basis for their own tagging system.

Faithlife has indicated that they have done "some initial work on categorizing denominational traditions and authors," and they're "still planning on integrating this data into Library" in some later version.

Just a warning. Andrew's collections (which can be downloaded here) are in the older Logos collection syntax (except perhaps for a recent few which I haven't checked) and therefore will load much more slowly than if they were updated to the new format. I undertook that for just one such collection: Denom,Stream: Baptist which I'll copy below, but doing so is a time-consuming and error-prone process. Since collections are rebuilt each time one starts Logos, having a number of the older syntax collections can slow your load time noticeably.

Here's the updated collection rule for Denom.Stream: Baptist (with some additions and modifications I added):

Just a warning. Andrew's collections...are in the older Logos collection syntax...and therefore will load much more slowly than if they were updated to the new format....Since collections are rebuilt each time one starts Logos, having a number of the older syntax collections can slow your load time noticeably.

I vaguely recall seeing some mention that there was a new collections syntax for Logos 8, but I can't find any information about it in Logos Help or the wiki or the forum. Could you tell me what has changed or point me to somewhere that documents the new syntax? The documentation should be updated in the Help file and the wiki.

It is here. Bradley discusses it here. The wiki has it in the Library page. (Look for the Search Fields You Can Use.. section.)

The new syntax is very specific. Curly brackets and double quotes, and the quotes must be straight quotes, not curly quotes, or it won't work. See the discussion in the second reference above.

It was documented in the release notes: https://wiki.logos.com/Logos_7.15_Beta_2

Later, some secret extras were added!: https://community.logos.com/forums/p/168635/1035996.aspx#1035996

It would be good if they could be documented properly.
