Politeness Annotation

Please rate how polite the request comes across for you. Each request is a part of a conversation between editors on wikipedia. There can be multiple factors affecting the politeness level of a sentence, such as style and content.

• Style: How did the requester phrase their request? The same content could be conveyed in both an impolite and polite manner. After reading the sentence, if you're able to think of a more polite way of saying the same thing, the style is not very polite
• Content: What is being asked in this request? For example, if the request is assuming the other editor made a mistake or violated rules intentionally, it less polite than one where editors are discussing what changes to make to a page. The content score will reflect the nature of the request

You'll assign a single politeness score after considering all factors.

A small fraction of the sentences may not be actual valid text. Simply mark those as invalid on the rightmost column.

The task is spread over 4 pages. The first page contains 5 sentences in English and the remaining 3 pages contain 5 sentences each in a Foreign langauge.

You can navigate between the pages using the Previous and Next Buttons.
