How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this work, a comparative study of how the epic "Korugly" is reflected in the Kazakh and Turkish versions. At the heart of the article is a version of "Korugly" sung by Kazakh poet Zhambyl Zhabayev. Other versions of this epic were considered on the basis of Mahir's hymn. It was also based on the opinions of well-known scholars in the field of folklore. The similarities with the main features of the poem were studied comparatively. An analysis was made of why the epic differed in Central Asia and Anatolia.
