### Dataset Summary
The Wiki Toxic dataset is a modified, cleaned version of the dataset used in the [Kaggle Toxic Comment Classification challenge](https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/jigsaw-toxic-comment-classification-challenge/overview) from 2017/18. The dataset contains comments collected from Wikipedia forums and classifies them into two categories, `toxic` and `non-toxic`.
The Kaggle dataset was cleaned using the included `clean.py` file.
### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
- Text Classification: the dataset can be used for training a model to recognise toxicity in sentences and classify them accordingly.
### Languages
The sole language used in the dataset is English.
## Dataset Structure
### Data Instances
For each data point, there is an id, the comment_text itself, and a label (0 for non-toxic, 1 for toxic).
```
{'id': 'a123a58f610cffbc',
'comment_text': '"This article SUCKS. It may be poorly written, poorly formatted, or full of pointless crap that no one cares about, and probably all of the above. If it can be rewritten into something less horrible, please, for the love of God, do so, before the vacuum caused by its utter lack of quality drags the rest of Wikipedia down into a bottomless pit of mediocrity."',
'label': 1}
```
### Data Fields
- `id`: A unique identifier string for each comment
- `comment_text`: A string containing the text of the comment
- `label`: An integer, either 0 if the comment is non-toxic, or 1 if the comment is toxic
### Data Splits
The Wiki Toxic dataset has three splits: *train*, *validation*, and *test*. The statistics for each split are below:
| Dataset Split | Number of data points in split |
| ----------- | ----------- |
| Train | 127,656 |
| Validation | 31,915 |
| Test | 63,978 |
