Do you need help with structuring your TCwiki page?
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 .
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 to 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 question 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 page.
