RemindersΒΆ

  • Timestamp every other minute to make things easier for you and other transcribers/coders later.
  • Timestamp every five minutes when somebody other than the PCG is overheard speaking (indicated with x in the key column) or speaks directly to the child (indicated with xc in the key column).
  • Indicate x and xc on separate rows.
  • Do not put punctuation after ###. (Good: but i want ### ; Bad: but i want ###.)
  • Keep track of idiosyncratic speech in the Notes section on the info page.
  • Keep track of the cast of characters and variant names used for cast members in the Cast section on the info page. For more info see Cast Information.
  • Don’t be lazy! If you hear something that seems like it should be a word but you don’t know it (e.g. it’s a foreign language or cultural reference), look it up on the internet. Don’t just put ### or NAME unless you have to.
