  In this position paper, we describe our perspective on how meaningful
resources for lower-resourced languages should be developed in connection with
the speakers of those languages. We first examine two massively multilingual
resources in detail. We explore the contents of the names stored in Wikidata
for a few lower-resourced languages and find that many of them are not in fact
in the languages they claim to be and require non-trivial effort to correct. We
discuss quality issues present in WikiAnn and evaluate whether it is a useful
supplement to hand annotated data. We then discuss the importance of creating
annotation for lower-resourced languages in a thoughtful and ethical way that
includes the languages' speakers as part of the development process. We
conclude with recommended guidelines for resource development.
