This document describes web annotation use cases using the Pundit web annotator. It provides examples of three personas and how they could use annotation tools. The first is an investor commenting on a company's annual report. The second is a user improving the quality of data in a digital archive by annotating inaccuracies. The third is a scholar annotating parts of text in a correspondence to link entities like people and places to aid further research. The document promotes Pundit annotation tools and provides more information on related projects and the company website.

9. Persona
Investor or associate of a company or cooperative.
User needs
The company publishes a public annual report on the website.
Investors and associates want to have the possibility to comment,
discuss and ask questions about the reported data. They want their
opinion to be heard and possibly contribute to bring some improvements
for the years to come.
THE ANNUAL REPORT
Use cases

10. Persona
User interested in the quality of data in a digital archive.
User needs
The user browsing the archive might notice some inaccuracies in the data
and might want to suggest some improvements. This is even more
relevant if the user is specifically interested in the quality of data, like he
is a contributor to the digital archive or is the owner of the data.
The suggestion might be provided with an easy tool that allow the user to
select the wrong data and suggest the correction. Other users might
want to reply to that suggestions with comments or endorsements.
IMPROVING THE QUALITY
OF A DIGITAL ARCHIVE
Use cases

11. Persona
Scholar studying a correspondence of a particular author.
User needs
On each text of the corpus the scholar wants to state that certain parts
of text are talking about entities like persons, places, bibliographical
resources or other parts of text.
This action must be performed very quickly while reading and it must be
possible for other scholars to review and rate the work already done.
This enrichment could later be used to perform a more accurate search
among the whole corpus and visualise the relation between text,
persons and places.
