Target community: 
Targeting researchers, media professionals, journalists, and policymakers, since the initiative offers tools to enhance content quality and accuracy.

**Subtask 1: 5W1Hs identification** (approx 9,034 annotations): Participants will be provided with a text, and they will have to determine the essential content of it by annotating the answers to the 5W1H questions of the document.


The RUN-AS annotation guideline enables the detection of the essential parts of a news item together with the reliability of its semantic elements, as well as other linguistic elements of interest that allow to find linguistic patterns of reliability in text, without using external knowledge. The goal of this annotation proposal is to analyze content on the basis of a purely  linguistic analysis to find out whether the way in which a news item is structured or written influences its reliability. To find out whether a news item presents objective information and follows journalistic standards, this proposal enables a three-level annotation: Structure (Inverted Pyramid hypothesis), Content (5W1H technique) and Elements of Interest (key expressions, orthotypography, quotes, etc.). For the present task, only the second level will be used, that is the use of the 5W1H, to detect the most important information in a text along with its reliability. 
The labels proposed for annotating this task are WHAT (fact), WHO (subject), WHEN (time), WHERE (place), WHY (cause) and HOW (manner). 

Using the 5W1H technique, we can break down the sentence “The arrest of the Italian scientist took place by force yesterday in Milan for selling an unauthorized vaccine” as follows:

     - What: The arrest 
     - Who: Italian scientist 
     - How: by force
     - When: yesterday
     - Where:  in Milan
     - Why: for selling an unauthorized vaccine
