Hello, Russian Rhetoric team.

I figured I'd make a new issue to provide some feedback on your project.

One question that I have is who are Rashidi and Souzandehfar who you referenced for creating your rhetorical tags? I see that a popular search result for their work is A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS OF THE DEBATES BETWEEN REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS OVER THE CONTINUATION OF WAR IN IRAQ .

A link to their work on the page and, perhaps, a brief description of discourse analysis would help users.

My other question is what circumstances merited using the "Vagueness" tag? Would it be exaggeration or simply using vague terms / language?

One example I see from the Megan Kelly & Putin interview is the line "кто это нам говорит, кто это обижается на нас за то, что мы вмешиваемся" translated (from "PROMT" translator) to "who tells it to us, who it takes offense at us for the fact that we interfere".

Thanks for presenting an interesting subject.
