Develop first draft of lexicon

[tarunima]

Overview:
The Uli slur list currently consists only of words. In addition to adding new words to the list, the words also need contextual information for it to be better suited for action. Based on desk research and internal testing, we need to develop a draft of lexicon that will be shared with partner organization(s) for feedback.

The tasks to get to the first draft are as follows:

• Literature Review of existing lexicons: #281
  Go through past publications and projects that have developed and used lexicons on hate speech or gendered abuse to understand the fields proposed.

• Propose initial draft of lexicon #282
  Based on Uli needs, and literature review propose the lexicon

• Internal team testing of lexicon #283
  The Uli team uses the lexicon to tag slur words. Improve lexicon based on internal team feedback.

• Converge on lexicon that can be shared with partner organization(s) for feedback
  Create documentation with the final lexicon: it should provide the tags as well as the definition of the tags for partner organizations to follow.
