===Ongoing work with corpus consistency===

The TypeCraft '''Akan corpus''' consisting of 51 texts is at present not accessible to the general public. This is due to work with corpus consistency.

===Trondheim - LDD 2012 - Presentations and literature list===

[[Image:LDD2012.jpg|thumb|200px|left|2nd Trondheim Workshop in Language Description and Documentation, September 2012]] 


Dear participants of the 2nd Trondheim workshop in Language Description and Documentation,

You now find a list of relevant publications mentioned during the workshop [[Trondheim LDD 2012 - Reference list|here]].

Many of the presentations can now be downloaded from our workshop page: [[2nd Trondheim Workshop in Language Description and Documentation |Go to the workshop page]].










=== Improved Sentence Level Tagging===
Almost right from the beginning, TypeCraft has provided sentence level tagging, yet the global tag-set has been only partially developed, so that consistent sentence level tagging was not possible. This is now changing.

At present we are redesigning the Globaltags (TypeCraft sentence level tags). The following grammatical classes for sentence level tagging are available:

* Syntactic Argument Structure
* Situation Type
* Argument structure alternation
* Adjuncts
* Sentence Pattern
* Modality
* Force & Evidentiality
* Sentence Aspect

The global tagging system is basically in place, while the set of individual tags still needs be extended throughout
August and September. Please write to me already now in case you have suggestions concerning the general design of the sentence level tagging system or are simply missing a tag.

Those of you that have made use of the global tag-set in their annotations, please have a look at your annotations.
Some adjustments of your old annotations will most likely be necessary.

More information will follow when the redesign of the Sentence Level Tagging has been completed.

==Do you need help with structuring your TCwiki page?==
[[User:Nathan James Colton|Nathan Colton]] has joined TypeCraft to assist you with the structuring of your TCwiki pages.

You might already have noticed that we have started a 'Spring Cleaning' initiative for all TCwiki pages [[File:Smiley.jpg.png|thumbs|20px|]]. 

Our main goal is to motivate all of you to start reporting about your annotation projects and linguistic work related to your project. 
So far we did not look too hard at editorial issues. Also concerning references we have been rather relaxed. 

The most important thing is still to '''get on the wiki and to write about the linguistic challenges that one faces when taking Interlinear Glossing seriously'''. Yet, with more and more TCwiki pages coming online it becomes important to provide adequate references. Not only the linguistic data, but all information that you give on a TCwiki page needs to be verifiable. For each claim you make you want to use material from the TC database to substantiate your claims. References to published sources are needed. Sometimes secondary sources are named, but not sufficiently references. This has to be changed. Remember also that also picture material integrated into your TCwiki page must be sourced properly. 

All questions concerning editing your pages and referencing correctly can now directly be addressed to Nathan. Please use Nathan's TC e-mail to contact him. You find his mail address as a link (E-mail this user) on the navigation bar of Nathan's [[User:Nathan James Colton|user page]].

==Infobox Language available==
{{Infobox language/quilt|right}}

'''You now can add a '''Infobox''' about your language to your TC-wiki page.''' 

A basic infobox looks as shown below:
:'''<nowiki>{{Infobox language</nowiki>''' &larr; this calls the template
:'''|name='''name of language &larr; the name of the language needs to be given
:'''|familycolor='''appropriate language family &larr; refer to the coloured chart to the right (or above, depending on your browser), and type the name shown there (so for example you type: <code>Indo-European</code>); this will add the appropriate family color to the template top
:'''<nowiki>}}</nowiki>''' &larr; this ends the template call

You probably would want to add some more parameters to your infobox. You find an overview over possible parameters on the [[Skeleton Infobox Language]] page.
