Welcome to the sign language corpora wiki

The sign language corpora wiki aims to be a feedback-based teaching and learning resource about sign language corpora. The wiki is quite small at this point, but contains information about corpus sign linguistics as an 'e-research' practice that is building new understanding of sign languages by collecting large amounts of data. The wiki also contains basic information about deafness and the twin academic fields of sign linguistics and deaf studies, by way of brief introduction to why sign language corpora are useful.

And finally, there are links to sign linguistic corpus meetings in the calendar, and references to further reading. The proceedings of the LREC workshops on sign language form a particularly rich source of information on technology and sign language.
