Collaborative Workflows for Linguistic Research

Master team workflows for multi-lingual annotation projects with real-time collaboration, version control, and project management tools.

Key Collaboration Features

Real-Time Editing

Multiple researchers can edit documents, annotations, and metadata simultaneously with live cursors and conflict resolution.

Version Control

Track changes using Git-style branching for annotation projects, with merge suggestions and diff visualizations.

Project Management

Organize tasks, set milestone dates, and track progress with Kanban-style boards integrated directly into workspaces.

Workshop: Starting a Collaborative Project

1. Create Workspace

Start by defining the project scope, setting linguistic parameters, and inviting collaborators via EGlossa's collaboration hub.

curl -X POST "api/eglossa/workspaces" -d '{"name":"Typology Project","tags":["Syntax","Semantics"]}'

2. Invite Team

Use shared links or email invites to bring collaborators in, assigning roles (annotator/reviewer/admin).

POST invitation: { "email": "researcher@example.org", "role": "annotator" }

3. Branch for Experiments

Create isolated branches for different grammatical frameworks when exploring multiple annotation models.

git branch -b h 1.1.2025/alternative

4. Merge with Validation

Use conflict resolver tools to merge branches with automated conflict detection and adjudication workflows.

MERGE --validate --adjudicate framework-conflicts

Practical Collaboration Scenarios

Multi-Linguist Workflows

Simultaneous annotation of multiple languages with unified schema.

Linguist 1 (Spanish): "The subject in this clause contains three subordinate modifiers."
Linguist 2 (Russian): "Объект здесь имеет маркеры глагольные и локативные."
System Sychronization: "Merged with 2 active annotations, validated 93% similarity"
