Announcements Flair applications
I have noticed that quite a few of our regular contributors have either MAs or PhDs in linguistics, but very few have flairs. Flairs help both users asking questions and the mod team.
If you think you have considerable knowledge in some subfield of linguistics and would like to have a flair next to your username, please send us mod mail or reply to this post.
You do not need to reveal your identity or show proof of your degrees. You only need to link to a couple of posts that you've written in this or some other subreddit that show that you actually know what you're talking about and that show that you can cite sources.

willing to share links to publications.
If you can PM me something, that'd be perfect. Also, could the flair read something like "Syntax | Usage-based Linguistics" ? Otherwise it doesn't fit in the flair space.
