While searching for answers on Stack Exchange, I've noticed that a lot of natural language processing (NLP) questions reside on Stack Overflow, Linguistics or any corresponding language site.
I assume a lot of people, just like me ask questions on natural language processing in the Stack Overflow section, when it is not correct to do so. NLP is not only concerned with programming. This is a separate well-formed field of knowledge that requires a separate Q&A site. Bewildering the fact that English Language and Usage exists together with English Language Learners as well as a lot of other unnecessary spinoffs like "Physical Fitness" and "Sport" and no site for NLP...
NLP questions may be scattered all over the place. I have several questions on the subject and I feel like posting on several Q&A sites because currently none is appropriate.
- Who and how do we create a site for a particular topic on Stack Exchange?
- When shall NLP become a separate Q&A site?
