The answer to "why" is of course "tradition", but new traditions ciuld be created! But another reason is that humanities scholars often discuss our research at seminars when they are work in progress, where more computationally focused ones present their work publically when it's finalized. That may be a reason to use preprint archives. @corpuslinguistics@linguistics@academicchatter@academicsunite@researchdatamanagement
@eugenia_diegoli A got an article about phonetics, corpora and DNNs to arXiv but it was harder than I expected - you need approvement from someone already well established on arXiv. This creates sort of Catch-22 situation for science niches not yet established in pre-prints. (Apart from inertia, nobody does so why should I.) @corpuslinguistics@linguistics@academicchatter@academicsunite
@vaclavh@corpuslinguistics@linguistics@academicchatter@academicsunite I use HAL, people there are quite responsive and it allows you to automatically transfer the file to arXiv, although I’ve never done it because it doesn’t look like arXiv has a domain relevant to my field (?). Anyway thanks for the feedback, I agree very few people in linguistics seems to bother with preprints. Personally I find them very helpful
