Regarding Dogon literature #4

Open bambooforest opened 3 years ago

bambooforest commented 3 years ago

todo: go through the literature and archive / store pertinent files not in Zenodo, LDH, Deepblue:

https://github.com/clld/dogonlanguages-data/tree/master/beta/literature

regarding much of the grammars, texts, etc., they are published online in typically two places:

e.g.

which is reflected in the .bib file:

https://github.com/clld/dogonlanguages-data/blob/master/beta/Dogon.bib#L2391-L2403

and to LDH:

https://ldh.clld.org/sources/item_2397771

As soon as we have the bibliography in a repository that is released to Zenodo, this should be transparent enough, I think. I.e. the dogonlanguages community on Zenodo will have all output or persistent links to the outputs.

Not sure what this file is and if you need something like it:

https://github.com/tupian-language-resources/bibliography/blob/main/main.tex

Maybe main.tex is for creating a PDF bibliography (correct, @LinguList ?). Don't think we need this here.

xrotwang commented 3 years ago

On second thought, if we want to release this to Zenodo, maybe a PDF would be a nice addition. But then we should add a RELEASING.md with release instructions, too :)

bambooforest commented 3 years ago

Yeah I can create a tex that simply dumps the entire biblio as PDF. Do you have an example of proper RELEASING?

xrotwang commented 3 years ago

Here's an example from tudet: https://github.com/tupian-language-resources/tudet/blob/main/RELEASING.md

LinguList commented 3 years ago

@xrotwang, sorry for late answer, but the main.tex is used on overleaf to guarantee that people can see the consequences of their bibtex decisions. This is crucial for those who are less firm in Bibtex. AND, having the bibliography in PDF is also a nice bonus.

LinguList commented 3 years ago

Since compilation of the bibtex file into a PDF is something like a test, it also spares us from making a test independently and then tellling users they should adjust the latex code. This is at least why we did this with TULAR.
