| ### Dataset Summary | |
| OffensEval 2020 features a multilingual dataset with five languages. The languages included in OffensEval 2020 are: | |
| * Arabic | |
| * Danish | |
| * English | |
| * Greek | |
| * Turkish | |
| The annotation follows the hierarchical tagset proposed in the Offensive Language Identification Dataset (OLID) and used in OffensEval 2019. | |
| In this taxonomy we break down offensive content into the following three sub-tasks taking the type and target of offensive content into account. | |
| The following sub-tasks were organized: | |
| * Sub-task A - Offensive language identification; | |
| * Sub-task B - Automatic categorization of offense types; | |
| * Sub-task C - Offense target identification. | |
| English training data is omitted so needs to be collected otherwise (see [https://zenodo.org/record/3950379#.XxZ-aFVKipp](https://zenodo.org/record/3950379#.XxZ-aFVKipp)) | |
| The source datasets come from: | |
| * Arabic [https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.02192.pdf](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.02192.pdf), [https://aclanthology.org/2021.wanlp-1.13/](https://aclanthology.org/2021.wanlp-1.13/) | |
| * Danish [https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.04531.pdf](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.04531.pdf), [https://aclanthology.org/2020.lrec-1.430/?ref=https://githubhelp.com](https://aclanthology.org/2020.lrec-1.430/) | |
| * English [https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.14454.pdf](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.14454.pdf), [https://aclanthology.org/2021.findings-acl.80.pdf](https://aclanthology.org/2021.findings-acl.80.pdf) | |
| * Greek [https://arxiv.org/pdf/2003.07459.pdf](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2003.07459.pdf), [https://aclanthology.org/2020.lrec-1.629/](https://aclanthology.org/2020.lrec-1.629/) | |
| * Turkish [https://aclanthology.org/2020.lrec-1.758/](https://aclanthology.org/2020.lrec-1.758/) | |
| ### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards | |
| * [OffensEval 2020](https://sites.google.com/site/offensevalsharedtask/results-and-paper-submission) | |
| ### Languages | |
| Five are covered: bcp47 `ar;da;en;gr;tr` | |
| ## Dataset Structure | |
| There are five named configs, one per language: | |
| * `ar` Arabic | |
| * `da` Danish | |
| * `en` English | |
| * `gr` Greek | |
| * `tr` Turkish | |
| The training data for English is absent - this is 9M tweets that need to be rehydrated on their own. See [https://zenodo.org/record/3950379#.XxZ-aFVKipp](https://zenodo.org/record/3950379#.XxZ-aFVKipp) | |
| ### Data Instances | |
| An example of 'train' looks as follows. | |
| ``` | |
| { | |
| 'id': '0', | |
| 'text': 'PLACEHOLDER TEXT', | |
| 'subtask_a': 1, | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| ### Data Fields | |
| - `id`: a `string` feature. | |
| - `text`: a `string`. | |
| - `subtask_a`: whether or not the instance is offensive; `0: NOT, 1: OFF` | |
| ### Data Splits | |
| | name |train|test| | |

| ## Dataset Creation | |
| ### Curation Rationale | |
| Collecting data for abusive language classification. Different rational for each dataset. | |
| ### Source Data | |
| #### Initial Data Collection and Normalization | |
| Varies per language dataset | |
| #### Who are the source language producers? | |
| Social media users | |
| ### Annotations | |
| #### Annotation process | |
| Varies per language dataset | |
| #### Who are the annotators? | |
| Varies per language dataset; native speakers | |
| ### Personal and Sensitive Information | |
| The data was public at the time of collection. No PII removal has been performed. | |
| ## Considerations for Using the Data | |
| ### Social Impact of Dataset | |
| The data definitely contains abusive language. The data could be used to develop and propagate offensive language against every target group involved, i.e. ableism, racism, sexism, ageism, and so on. | |
| ### Discussion of Biases | |
| ### Other Known Limitations | |
| ## Additional Information | |
| ### Dataset Curators | |
| The datasets is curated by each sub-part's paper authors. | |

| abstract = "We present the results and the main findings of SemEval-2020 Task 12 on Multilingual Offensive Language Identification in Social Media (OffensEval-2020). The task included three subtasks corresponding to the hierarchical taxonomy of the OLID schema from OffensEval-2019, and it was offered in five languages: Arabic, Danish, English, Greek, and Turkish. OffensEval-2020 was one of the most popular tasks at SemEval-2020, attracting a large number of participants across all subtasks and languages: a total of 528 teams signed up to participate in the task, 145 teams submitted official runs on the test data, and 70 teams submitted system description papers.", | |
