If you are interested about learning how a specific research effort has handled this question, I suggest you reach out to the researchers in that effort. In the case of Ex Machina: Personal Attacks Seen at Scale <https://arxiv.org/abs/1610.08914>, Section 3 should give you a relatively detailed description of how this question was approached.
