Suggestion: WA-coding to Luther's writings
Hi!
Could we have the WA (Weimarer Ausgabe) coding to Luther's Works and other Luther's writings? Luther is usually referred by using WA vol and page, at least in Europe. So it would be much easier to find the right texts in English translations by using the WA codes (for example WA 31.I, 189 can be found in LW vol.13, p 39).
Also the WA itself would be nice to have in Logos.

There is also some StL coding that doesn't link to any edition of Luther's Works; I first noticed it in Pieper's Christian Dogmatics. (There's other coding in that same text that doesn't work, but it references something else entirely.)

This is a good suggestion that I will be exploring.
One question: how precise would you expect the placement of the WA milestones?
The Concordia editions that we carry only have milestones ranges for WA at the top of the page. Consequently, placing the milestones in the English edition could only be close approximations at best. It's better than nothing but it wouldn't be exact.

Great!
The more precise the better of course. But one (range) per page for Luther's Works would be enough for me.
At the minimum I'd like to see WA milestones in the beginning of every chapter. It would be nice to get them to all the Luther's titles. There seems to be quite many new Luther's books in Community pricing now: https://www.logos.com/products/search?Author=11248|Martin+Luther

StL coding would be good to have also in addition to WA coding.
Maybe there's some CPH resources that are not available in logos.com but only as old Libronix CD-ROMs? (For example, I've seen LW vol. 69 CD-ROM in cph.org but the volume is not in logos.com )

I have found a helpful link on the web to an index of the various editions of Luther's Works that may be a helpful resource:

I've got a much better link for you: Mikko built an index of those editions back in 2015 which can be used as a Personal Book in Logos - I think the latest version of the file is here:
