Eng. Wikipedia, viewed on 22 April 2021: (hdg.: Mordechai ben Hillel; Mordechai ben Hillel HaKohen; רבי מרדכי בן הלל הכהן = Rabi Mordekhai ben Hilel ha-Kohen; המרדכי = ha-Mordekhai; c. 1250-1298; also known as "The Mordechai"; 13th-century German rabbi and posek; killed in the Rintfleisch massacres in 1298; lived in Goslar and Nuremburg; [h]is chief legal commentary on the Talmud, referred to as The Mordechai, is one of the sources of the Shulchan Aruch; there are two entirely different versions of his work, respectively designated as the "Rhenish" and the "Austrian" versions; [t]hese two versions are also respectively known as the "Short Mordechai" (מרדכי הקצר = Mordekhai ha-ḳatser; Mordekhai haKetzar [ in rom.]) and "Long Mordechai" (מרדכי הארוך = Mordekhai ha-arokh; Mordekhai ha'Arokh [in rom.]), due to their varying length; [t]hese are not merely two different copies of the Mordechai, but are in fact two materially different compendiums; [i]t is thought that the Austrian Mordechai, as found in the manuscripts, is the original form of the work; [t]he version published in the Talmud is the Rhenish with glosses from the Austrian Mordechai, by Rabbi Samuel ben Aaron of Schlettstadt)
