• Drag over a number of words for a group (standard setting is PERS)


Keyboard shortcuts• Click/drag + shortcut key indicates TYPE

– Click/drag + p = PERS

– Click/drag + o = ORG

– Click/drag + n = NOT KNOWN


Some functionalities• Click on tagged NE removes attestation

• ‘Walk’ through tags with < and > Arrow keys moves attestation.

• Auto attest last tagged NE on whole page

• Elliptical NE (North and South America) with ‘e’-key

• Not sure if word(s) is/are Named Entity at all?– Use the ‘w’-key to mark the attestation as dubious

(red question mark)– Note: ‘King’ is not a NE

• Sure that the word(s) is/are a NE, but not sure which?– Use the NOT KNOWN type– Note: ‘Badis’ is a city, so LOC
