: Re: Podcast Transcripts: suggested collaborative tools? I love accessibility, so any show that is 100% scripted, my script = the transcript, and I'm happy to share it. For podcasts with a cohost,
Github or similar is a good choice
I can't say I have used it personally for this type of work, however as a software engineer by day it is my collaboration tool of choice for most things.
Unlike the StackExchange Podcast that inspired this, I am not familiar with GitHub.
I'd like to assure you that learning git/github isn't that difficult. If you can master stack exchange you can handle github. I found an easy guide that doesn't require any installation or use of the command line. With a little searching you will find hundreds of guides on what git is and how to use it.
Why it is a good choice
Centralised: You can have a single repository per project
Protected: Pull requests and review prevent spammers from harming your transcripts
Low entrance barrier: Users can make edits and submit for review directly in the brower
Choice of editor: Users can edit files locally and upload changes for review
Robust version management: all changes are tracked and can be reverted
Format independent: git deals in raw text so any file format can be used, markdown is rendered on github so can be a good choice.
User permissions: the repository owner has complete control over who has access to their repository and what they can do with that control. Additionally you can delegate permissions to other trusted users
