Automatically detecting inappropriate content can be a difficult NLP task, requiring understanding context and innuendo, not just identifying specific keywords. Due to the large quantity of online user-generated content, automatic detection is becoming increasingly necessary. We take a largely unsupervised approach using a large corpus of narratives from a community-based self-publishing website and a small segment of crowd-sourced annotations. We explore topic modelling using latent Dirichlet allocation (and a variation), and use these to regress appropriateness ratings, effectively automating rating for suitability. The results suggest that certain topics inferred may be useful in detecting latent inappropriateness -- yielding recall up to 96 regression errors.
