=======================
Revelation 16:5 (KJV)
And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.
Theodore Beza (1582 expanded to this in 1598)
Itaque ambigere non possum quin germana sit scriptura quam ex vetusto bonae fidei manuscripto codice restitui, nempe ο εσομενος.
“Therefore, I am not able to doubt but that the true reading should be as I have
restored it from an ancient manuscript [hand-written]
codex of good faith, truly ο εσομενος.” - translation by Jeffrey Riddle
=======================
Jan Krans calls Beza the author, yet says nothing about Beza's own statement that he had an ancient ms. with the reading. Apparently Jan Krans plans to argue that Beza was mistaken, some time in the future, see that in the Jeffrey Riddle page.
The phrase "conjectural emendation" is divided into two categories by Jan Krans. One which has ms. support. This is a discussion for another day.
=======================
The list from Jan Krans is helpful, however we can make additions.
(And in some cases, we could pull out the original source, in a url.)
Jan Krans omits Joseph Mede and Jean Joseph Hisely and Constantine Tischendorf, who quote the Beza Latin. And there are a number of writers in the last 35 years.
See also the Nick Sayers page for more additions. (Nick mentions Tischendorf, in the context of James White, but he might also use the urls below for the three writers.) It is understood that Jan Krans would limit the modern entries, however, they have some of the most important material, especially Nick Sayers.

And more!
For a future post, the material that needs the most attention is Nick Sayers, perhaps Jack Moorman as well with material from Rev 1:4.
Also the definitions and theories of conjectural emendation (this is in Jeffrey Riddle).
emendatio ingenii ope (‘emendation by means of reasoning’),
emendatio codice ope (‘emendation by means of manuscripts’).
