## General concept of the model
Sensitive topics are such topics that have a high chance of initiating a toxic conversation: homophobia, politics, racism, etc. This dataset uses 18 topics.
More details can be found [in this article ](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/2021.bsnlp-1.4/) presented at the workshop for Balto-Slavic NLP at the EACL-2021 conference.
This paper presents the first version of this dataset. Here you can see the last version of the dataset which is significantly larger and also properly filtered.

abstract = "Not all topics are equally {``}flammable{''} in terms of toxicity: a calm discussion of turtles or fishing less often fuels inappropriate toxic dialogues than a discussion of politics or sexual minorities. We define a set of sensitive topics that can yield inappropriate and toxic messages and describe the methodology of collecting and labelling a dataset for appropriateness. While toxicity in user-generated data is well-studied, we aim at defining a more fine-grained notion of inappropriateness. The core of inappropriateness is that it can harm the reputation of a speaker. This is different from toxicity in two respects: (i) inappropriateness is topic-related, and (ii) inappropriate message is not toxic but still unacceptable. We collect and release two datasets for Russian: a topic-labelled dataset and an appropriateness-labelled dataset. We also release pre-trained classification models trained on this data.",
