It's such a thorny issue because in many baroque parts, the markings are so inconsistent (sometimes they are clearly staccato markings, but in a set of doublet-parts, where there are two copies of violin 1, the same bar will have wedges / daggers. My editor has suggested to duplicate the markings as found in the sources and note the inconsistently and let the performers make their own decisions. Most musicians who are trained in early music or perform on historical instruments will make their own choices anyway.
