<p dir="auto">This shared task is about the detection of
sexism/misogyny in comments posted in (mostly) German language
to the comment section of an Austrian online newspaper. The
data was originally collected for the development of a
classifier that supports human moderators in detecting
potentially sexist comments or identify comment fora with a
high rate of sexist comments. For details see the <a
