Categorical labels can underestimate the performance of generative systems by massive amounts, as much as half the errors or more; and error analysis and other simple steps could greatly improve the rigor and real-world impact of much of the research in the field.
We provide some practical tools for this, included lightweight recommended practices for Evaluation Quality Assurance (EQA), a toolkit to evaluate dataset quality, and the largest collection of misinformation datasets.

💡 Strong data and eval are essential for real-world progress. In "A Guide to Misinformation Detection Data and Evaluation"—to be presented at KDD 2025—we conduct the largest survey to date in this domain: 75 datasets curated, 45 accessible ones analyzed in depth. Key findings👇
🚀 Given these challenges, error analysis and other simple steps could greatly improve the robustness of research in the field. We propose a lightweight Evaluation Quality Assurance (EQA) framework to enable research results that translate more smoothly to real-world impact.
