The main aim is to deliver a well-annotated corpus of essays written by second language learners of Swedish and make it available for research through a browsable environment. To that end, a new annotation tool and a new project management tool have been implemented, – both with the main purpose to ensure reliability and quality of the final corpus. In the article we discuss reasoning behind metadata selection, principles of gold corpus compilation and argue for separation of normalization from correction annotation.}, journal = {Northern European Journal of Language Technology}, author = {Volodina, Elena and Granstedt, Lena and Matsson, Arild and Megyesi, Beáta and Pilán, Ildikó and Prentice, Julia and Rosén, Dan and Rudebeck, Lisa and Schenström, Carl-Johan and Sundberg, Gunlög and Wirén, Mats}, year = {2019}, volume = {6}, pages = {67--104}, }
