Since Bassani added one of the mss. from the BnF, it has been merged (in the wiki) with the ms. of BN Marciana - and put before it.
This looks strange to me, because we have two very different mss., not the same! And the BnF one has a restitutor name (Fossard) and date (1695) - this ms. was clearly made after the Italian one (maybe an autograph? see the erasures).
This leads me to one point: contributors of this kind of (very valuable) material should always provide the permalink to the original library.
