Annotation process

We describe the labels above in a “flat” manner. However, the annotation process we follow is hierarchical. The following QA pairs give a more flowchart-like procedure to follow

1. Is the tweet in Turkish and understandable?
   • No: mark tweet X for exclusion, and go to next tweet
   • Yes: continue to step 2
2. Is the tweet include offensive/inappropriate language?
   • No: mark the tweet non go to step 4
   • Yes: continue to step 3
3. Is the offense in the tweet targeted?
   • No: mark the tweet prof go to step 4
   • Yes: chose one (or more) of grp, ind, *oth based on the definitions above. Please try to limit the number of labels unless it is clear that the tweet includes offense against multiple categories.
4. Was the labeling decision difficult (precise answer needs more context, tweets includes irony, or for another reason)?
   • No: go to next tweet
   • Yes: add the label X, go to next tweet
