Dear all,
When I became interested in stopwords a few years ago, I used and updated the lists on the Digital Classicist wiki page. I am now trying to suggest reasonable lists to be implemented in Voyant Tools. About a week ago, I opened an issue to "Add default stopwords for Greek and Latin". In the process I compared available lists (Perseus, CLTK and others) and tried to grasp on what principles such a non-specialised list should be based, although I am aware this is part of a broader discussion about the flexible, iterative use of stopwords in research.
The discussion can be found there:
https://github.com/sgsinclair/Voyant/issues/382
https://github.com/aurelberra/stopwords/blob/master/elements_for_discussion.md
I would be grateful for comments and advice.
Best wishes,
Aurélien
