Social Media NLP
Social Media NLP is a specialised natural-language-processing pipeline designed for the short, noisy, and informal text that appears on platforms such as Twitter, Reddit, and comment sections. Unlike general-purpose NLP, this pipeline accounts for platform-specific conventions — hashtags, emojis, abbreviations, and code-switching — enabling tasks such as hashtag analysis, viral content detection, and public-opinion measurement. The benchmark tradition for this approach was established through the SemEval-2017 Task 4 shared task (Rosenthal et al., 2017) and the TweetEval unified benchmark (Barbieri et al., 2020).

Curated claims
Claims persisted in the evidence ledger, each with its own assessment.
This view does not invent a claim assessment when the ledger has none.
