Yìmíng 佚名 (“lost-name”, anonymous) is the conventional Chinese cataloging marker for a work whose author or compiler is not preserved in the textual record. The Kanripo catalog meta uses the term as a frontmatter author value where the underlying text and its editions consistently fail to identify a specific author. The marker covers a wide range of cases: genuine anonymity (works circulated without authorial attribution); lost attribution (works whose original authorial colophons have not survived through the transmission); and pseudonymous-or-corporate authorship (especially in the case of late-imperial liturgical anthologies and devotional reference works, where a community of editors has produced a work without any single author taking responsibility).

In the present catalog the marker appears, e.g., on KR6i0588 Zhūjīng rìsòng jíyào 諸經日誦集要, the late-Míng / early-Qīng daily-recitation liturgical anthology preserved in the Jiāxīngzàng, which was clearly produced by the Jiāxīngzàng editorial circle at Yāngshān without individual attribution.
