Introducing the Core Metadata Schema for Interpreting Corpora: Inviting Feedback

A new metadata schema for interpreting corpora has been developed, aiming to provide a consistent and informative description for these valuable datasets. The schema is based on a review of 114 corpora, FAIR principles, international standards, similar initiatives, and ontologies of the interpreting community. It is available at https://tinyurl.com/intpmetadata, with example implementations using four community, conference, and sign language interpreting corpora found at https://tinyurl.com/intpmetadata-example. We welcome feedback on the schema by the end of July, with the goal of co-creating a metadata standard that fits the needs of the interpreting community.
